ABSTRACT A phenomenon as old the human civilization, migration is little studied in its qualitative aspect. Striking trends since the first censuses reveal how migration has been shaped to its present contemporary state. While a plethora of quantitative data supports this assertion, the qualitative studies reveal a different story. In 1991, India adopted a series of new economic policies, based on the principles of liberalization, globalization and privatization. The new economic policies aimed at increasing efficiency, achieving high growth rate, promoting exports, and attracting more and more foreign investment by easing up policy regulations. An unparalleled development of creation of the cosmopolitan cities forced the Indian population to cluster at these 'urbanized' centers. In view of the same, the present study endeavors to analyses the trends and patterns of internal labour migration in India. It also aims to intricately combine the existing quantitative data with an independent case study of the qualitative aspect. More specifically, it intends to associate the overwhelming numbers with the economic hardships at ground level
