The notion of migration is quite wide and various synonyms have been used for the people who migrate. The phenomenon of migration has profound psychological implications for individuals, particularly when it involves leaving one's homeland for a foreign land in pursuit of a better life. The migration of Pakistani Hindus to India has been a significant socio-political phenomenon for decades. The journey of these migrants is often marked by harrowing experiences, but they come to India with the expectation of finding safety, religious freedom, and better opportunities. These individuals, seeking refuge from religious persecution and often carry the weight of their traumatic past and encounter numerous challenges while adapting to their new homeland. Migrated people were often found to be stressed. For the majority of the time, migrants lack adequate planning and social assistance. Therefore, preparing the migrants, giving them knowledge about migration, and ensuring that they have access to the required public and health facilities will aid in preventing the psychological anguish that is expected and will aid in promoting the mental health well-being of migrants.
