    This study estimates return migration in India between 1961-1971. Approximately 4.7 million inter-state migrants returned to their home states during this decade.

    Area of Science:

    • Demography
    • Sociology
    • Economics

    Background:

    • Inter-state migration is a significant demographic phenomenon in India.
    • Understanding migration patterns, including return migration, is crucial for regional development and policy-making.
    • Previous studies have highlighted the complexity of migration dynamics in India.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To estimate the volume of return migration among lifetime inter-state migrants in India.
    • To analyze return migration patterns for 15 major Indian states during the period 1961-1971.
    • To identify factors influencing return migration.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized 1961 census data on lifetime inter-state migrants.
    • Applied Zachariah's (1967) model for estimating return migration using two-census data.

  • Calculated return migration for 15 major Indian states.

    • Main Results:

    • Estimated that approximately 4.7 million out of nearly 13 million inter-state migrants returned during 1961-1971.
    • Identified significant return migration flows across major Indian states.
    • Analysis of factors influencing return migration was conducted.

    Conclusions:

    • Return migration is a substantial component of inter-state migration in India.
    • The study provides quantitative estimates crucial for demographic and economic analyses.
    • Further research into the determinants of return migration is warranted.
