1 175 Regression Model Approach for Out-Migration on Demographic Aspects of Rural Areas of Pauri Garhwal Pankaj Bahuguna, Research Scholar, Department of Statistics, H.N.B.G.U., Srinagar (Garhwal) Uttarakhand Prof. O.K. Belwal, Department of Statistics, H.N.B.G.U., Srinagar (Garhwal) Uttarakhand ABSTRACT Creation of separate state Uttarakhand is also becoming the base of migration in Garhwal from different parts of India and in foreign countries. Another way of migration is Garhwalis fleeing from Garhwal and establishing themselves in various cities and villages of other parts of India. It is estimated that approximately, one fifth population of Garhwalis is scattered here and there in India and other countries. Migration is the third component of population change, the other two being mortality and fertility. As compared to birth rate and death rate, migration affects the size of population differently. Migration is not a biological event like birth rate and death rate, but is influenced by the social, cultural, economic and political factors. This paper is an attempt to analyse the out-migration with reference to various demographic indicators like age, marriage, family nature, facilities in the rural areas of Pauri Garhwal. The data is collected through a survey with the help of questionnaire. The multiple regression model is used to show the impact of out-migration from the study area. The analysis shows that highest responsible indicator is income after migration for the study area. Keywords: Multiple regression, migration indicators, push factors, unemployment. INTRODUCTION Migration is the movement of people from one place in the world to another for the purpose of taking up permanent or semi permanent residence. One of the most significant migration patterns has been rural to urban migration - the movement of people from the countryside to cities in search of opportunities. In the rural areas, sluggish agricultural growth and limited development of the rural non-farm sector raises the incidence of rural poverty, unemployment and underemployment. The fact that most of the high productivity activities are located in the urban areas, the rural-urban income differentials, particularly for the poor and unemployed, are enormous. Thus, many of them migrate to the urban areas in search of jobs. Even when jobs in the high productivity activities are limited in number relative to the supply, and often they are not accessible, population still flows to the urban areas in search of opportunities. In the face of a high natural growth of population, rural-urban migration aggravates the situation of excess supplies of labour in the urban areas. Within the urban informal sector this tends to reduce the level of earnings and get manifested in a high incidence of urban poverty. The 2011 Census reveals migration from all hill districts of the State. Excepting two Hill Districts, all others hover around a population growth rate of 5 % with Almora and Pauri Districts showing a negative population growth of % and % respectively against a national average of 17 %. This reflects the absence of livelihood opportunities in the Hills and yearning for a better quality of life. Migration is one of the major contributors to urban growth in Uttarakhand. Migration accounts for about two-thirds of the urban growth seen in Pauri Garhwal since Creation of separate state. This paper focuses on rural - urban migration, which involves both permanent and temporary moves in search of employment and livelihoods. Push and pull factors are responsible for the migration of people from the place of origin to the place of destination. In this study multiple regression model approach is suitable for all the independent indicators to show the variation in dependent variable that is migration. Recently released provisional decadal Census results (2011) have been called a mixture of the expected and the unexpected. Some of the results could perhaps also be called alarming. The latest decadal growth of %, much higher than the all-india decadal growth of 17.64%, is somewhat lower than the previous ( ) growth rate of %. The decline in the population growth rate during is much slower in Uttarakhand (1.24 percentage points) than at the national level (3.90 percentage points) and in the neighbouring mountain state of Himachal Pradesh (4.73 percentage points). This is said to correspond with the evidence of natural rate of population increase which has been more or less stable over the years 2005 to 2009.

Singh Nagar Hardwar Uttarakhand Source: Population Census Provisional Data-2011 The Table very tellingly shows how the decadal rate of population growth has been exceptionally high in four districts: over 30 % in Dehradun, Hardwar and Udham Singh Nagar and over 25% in Nainital, and moderately high in Champawat (14.5 %) and Uttarkashi (about 12 %). In the remaining seven districts, population growth has been rather low, being about 5% or less. In two of these districts, Pauri Garhwal and Almora, it is negative. Except Nainital and Uttarakashi, the high population growth districts are either fully situated in the plains (Udham Singh Nagar and Hardwar). In simpler terms, even though the mountain districts of Uttarakhand were already well known for male-out migration in search of employment the rate of out migration has accelerated to such an extent that while all mountain districts exhibit substantial decline in population growth, two erstwhile 'capital ' districts of Pauri Garhwal and Almora have shown a negative growth rate. The only mitigating factor seems to be that the migration has taken place to the plains regions of the state itself. The other indicators suggest that not only there is considerable migration from the mountain districts, in contrast to the earlier pattern of only men going out, now whole families are migrating. The other disturbing area of concern, which emerges from these early results, relates to a rather sharp decline in the child sex ration, in the mountain districts. To what extent it mirrors the phenomenon of 'women drudgery', feminization of agriculture and increased poverty levels of mountain regions, deserves to be investigated through micro-investigations. Picture: After migration the condition of villages in rural areas of Pauri Garhwal

3 177 METHODOLOGY In this study, the analysis of spatial concentrated location is based on migration effectiveness statistics while the statistical processing of migration stream is based on multiple regression analysis. For determining the most responsible factor for migration in rural areas, we selected randomly 24 villages from over all villages of Pauri Garhwal and from each village we select 10 households for investigation by questionnaire. Dependent variables are number of migrants moved into destination areas and from original areas. We will try to examine the associations between number of migrants and other independent variables by regression model approach in the study area. Various diagrammatic representations are used to show the migration with reference to different factors. OBJECTIVES 1. To fit the multiple regression model for migration on different independent variables. 2. To show the status of rural areas of Pauri Garhwal with reference to different indicators. MULTIPLE REGRESSION MODEL To show the functional relationship between one dependent variable to another independent variable, multiple regression approach is very useful tool. In this study number of migrants is our dependent variable and nature of family, age at migration time, Income after migration, facilities available in villages, female marriage(number of females moved to their in-laws home), & marital status at migration time are the independent variables. The data collected from 24 villages of rural areas of Pauri Garhwal by conducting field survey and 240 households were interviewed. The following multiple regression equation is obtained Number of Migrants = X 1 + X 2 (Nature of Family) + X 3 (Age at Migration Time) + X 4 (Income) + X 5 (Facilities) + X 6 (Female Marriage) + X 7 (Marital Status) Where number of migration is dependent variable, nature of family, age at migration time, Income after migration, marital status, facilities & educational status are independent variables respectively.

7 181 The above figures show the condition of migration in rural areas of Pauri Garhwal. CONCLUSIONS & DISCUSSIONS In Pauri Garhwal migration is due to underdevelopment. It is one of the few districts of Uttarakhand, which shows practically no trend of in-migration, but a growing tendency of out-migration. A large number of able-bodied men have to migrate to earn their living, employment opportunities in this area being negligible. The multiple regression model is used for out migration on different independent variables. The model summary shows the adjusted R square by which 46.6 % variations can be specified. Model show the highly associated variable is Income after migration (45.1%) and Age at migration time (11.2%), Female marriage (5.3%). Income after migration is highly responsible for pulling the persons from the rural areas by the attraction of cities. The secondly responsible factor is age of migrants at migration time and the thirdly responsible factor is female marriage means a female of a family is permanently migrated to her in-laws home. Also after marriage of migrated person his family move with him in the cities. To show the status of rural areas of Pauri Garhwal with reference to different indicators the second figure is the representation of type of villages. In the hill areas, the region is divided into three types of villages: road side, valley and high elevation villages. There are 37.50% road side, 37.50% valley and 25% high elevation villages in this study area. Condition of a village (distance from road) play a significant role in the development, there finding imbalances between rural and urban areas in the context of social, economical, cultural and political activities. The third figure shows the number of persons migrated from these three type of villages. The fourth figure represents the number of persons migrated due to lack of facilities available in the villages. Fifth figure represents the main source of income for the livelihood for their families. The main source of income in the study area is highly depends upon government service (30.83%) followed by agriculture (28.75%) and private service (23.75%). The Sixth figure represents that temporary and permanent (31.67%) both the types of migration highly associated with the household levels. Migrants are predominantly young adults from low income families. But the traditional picture of young males leaving their villages to find work to support their families is changing as more and more women join their ranks and, increasingly, migrants are more informed about job opportunities at work destinations. The effect of factors at the place of destination on migration is interesting. Prospects for better job opportunities are a major determinant of migration. Low castes and minority groups tend to pull migration through network effects. Thus the study area requires some new policies specially concern with rural areas of Pauri Garhwal.
