‘Hundreds of workers have left for other states and more are following them these days'

Siliguri: The trend of out-migration from Bengal — often linked to the lack of employment opportunities in the state — is back in different districts after the Covid-19-induced gap of two years.

Senior government officials and elected representatives at rural bodies in a number of districts admitted that they were witnessing the exodus of workers, who had returned home after the lockdown, to their old workplaces in different states in northern, southern and western India in the past few months.

“Hundreds of workers have left for other states and more are following them these days. This is because of the lack of employment opportunities in rural areas, especially because jobs are not available under the 100-day work scheme after the Centre held up the release of funds. Also, the higher wage rate in other states is encouraging them to leave their native places,” said a senior official of the Cooch Behar district administration.

Bengal has been a net out-migrant state — which means the number of people coming to Bengal in search of jobs is less than the number of people leaving the state looking for employment — since the time of the Left Front government.
