Human migration is the movement of people from one place to another with intentions of settling temporarily or permanently at a new location in the country or outside the country. The movement is often occurs over long distances which is the dominant form of human migration globally. It has a high potential to improve human development, and some studies confirm that migration is the most direct route out of poverty. The migration rate with in India between 2020-2021 was almost 29 percent, which means about 26.5 percent of the population in the rural areas of the country were migrants, while this was about 35 percent in urban areas. Females recorded a higher share of migration rate of 47.9%; with 48% in rural and 47.8% in urban areas. Migration rate for males was 10.7%, with 5.9% in rural and 22.5% in urban areas. Migration in India is on the rise because the unemployment rate in India is high (15 per cent), and there are not enough jobs for people who want a job. In Telangana also as per 2011 census nearly 30% or 307 millions of population are migrants, majority of them are marginalized sections of the society i.e. SC/ST/OBC/Women who migrates to Hyderabad city in search of employment. This paper attempts to study the impact of MGNREGS on Rural-Out migration among Gond, Koya, Chenchu and Lambada tribes from selected villages in Telangana for the year 2015-16.
