INTRODUCTION

Migration is not a new phenomenon; it is a universal and continues since from the human evolution. The mobility of people becomes the global issue and challenges to the policy maker in both the origin and host economy. According to Demko, G.J.- Ross, H.M - Schneel, G.A. ( 1970), Migration is a dynamic process of population change, it provides an important information factors which indicates the cause of social & economic change and also consider the adjustment into the new economic environmental & social problems. Chapman, Keith (1979), State that migration is a good example of relocation of people from two different places at one place. Gosal (1961) mentioned that migration cannot be considered a mere shifts of residence of people from one place to another, as it is most fundamental process of changing of resident from one place to another. Week, J.R. (1989), migration refers to shifting of resident from one place to another. He laid emphasis on crossing political boundaries. IOM (international Organization for Migration) no universally accepted definition for migrant exists. The term migrant was usually understood to cover all cases where the decision to migrate was taken freely by the individual concerned for reasons of personal convenience without intervention the other factors. It is not merely a process of mobility from one place to another place but it has a dynamic process of changing in the Demographic pattern, Socio-economic profile, Political Scenario, Health, Education, Life style, Cultural & Traditional, Religious, as well as Environmental aspects. It has a long-lasting impact on host country as well as original economy. Migration occurs when various push and pulls factors comes together. (Bhagat & Mohanty 2009). The impact of mobility could be bear by both the economy original and destination in many forms. Well the Skilled mobility will brings the positive impact in the destination economy at the same time lost of quality labour & human resource in original economy. On the other hand large unskilled mobility will brings negatives impact in various forms like demographic, economy& social changes but availability of cheap and efficient labour is plus point. It plays an important role to change a socioeconomic profile and demographic pattern of both the economy. (Khan 2010). The Social and Economic factor has been widely recognized for it. (Manner 2003). Therefore, a country cannot over-look the adverse impact of migration in its economy especially when the world economy has been comforting the trap of low growth. India is not exception and its small tiny state Sikkim is the case to be studies in a varied of reasons. Most importantly its border touches with China, Nepal, and Bhutan.

Sikkim is a second smallest state of Indian union and its became a 22nd state on 16th may 1975, with total population of 607688, (321661 males and 286027 females) as per the census of India 2011, which occupies a geographical area of 7096Sq.km. and having literacy rate 82.40%. Sikkim economy is driven by the secondary and tertiary sector, where tourism sector promote as an economic growth engine. Agriculture is practice in an organic process base on terrace farming and cultivation of crops like orange, large cardamom, tea etc. At a CAGR (2010) (compound annual growth rate) primary sector contribute 9.9%, secondary 17.2% and tertiary 15% with the growth rate of 19.24%. These growing needs of the Sikkim economy have attracted a large numbers of migration and immigration people in the State; it has also accounted a large number of migration populations which has been coming from nearby States and the neighboring country. According to State Socio Economic Census (SSEC) 2006, non-Sikkimess (migrants) people constitute 146564 person 25.20% to its total population in Sikkim. In Sikkim migration or migrants were categorized on the basis those, who don't possess COI (certificate of Identification), SSC (Sikkim Subject Certificate) and land registration document or Parcha, this growing migration in Sikkim has impacting the economy. Therefore the main objectives of the article are: (I). to quantify the migration population in Sikkim. (ii). to assess the impact on the socio-economy fabrics of Sikkim. (iii). to suggest the remedies had to cope up the situation amicably.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The study is based on secondary data which is taken from department of statistic bureau of Sikkim, socio-economic Census 2006 Sikkim: a statistical profile 2002, Census 2001, Census 2011, Sikkim Govt website etc.

DATA ANALYSIS

The increasing influx into Sikkim is a genuine issue to be study. It may become a sensitive and controversial issue in near future, if the policy maker cannot consider the issue seriously. Sikkim is a small state surrounded by the international boundary from three sides. The people are peace loving and eco-friendly with rich culture & heritage and a unique identity. If the influx continuously increases, than it may affect on culture & heritage, socio-economic and demographic pattern of local tribe as well their identical threat. Especially, the indigenous local tribe (Lepcha & Bhutia) of Sikkim which population is recorded least. Therefore an attempt has been made to study the changing scenario of demographic profile of the state, economic activities of the migrants and their future impact on Sikkim economic.

TRENDS IN POPULATION GROWTH

The first population census of Sikkim was undertaken in 1891 during the British Raj. Sikkim during this period was a

.protectorate state of the British. The State at that period was sparsely populated and most of the area was under forest covered. During those periods Bhutia were 4894, Lepcha 5762, Limboo 3356 and Nepalese 15,458 numbers. (Source: SSEC 2006).

Table1.1. Show the Comparative Population, Sex ratio, Density, Growth Rate and percentage of Migration in Sikkim.

Source: 1991 census, 2001 census, 2011 census, and SSES 2006.

As per the above data shows that till 1960 data of migration is error. After merger with India the census categories the migration data from total population. The percentage of migration is very high during 1981 and 1991 census with the growth rate of 50.77 to 28.47 % of total population. Further the percentage also recorded high during 1971 and 2001. While, the sex ratio recorded in decreasing from 1971 to till the latest census 2011.

The following analysis of migration data table is based on secondary data which is collected from SSES 2006 to highlight the proportion of migration in Sikkim there percentage, working and non-working migration, age distribution, and their economy activities.

Table 1.2. District wise Distribution of migration population and their percentage in Sikkim.

Source: SSEC (2006)

According to the above table, 25.20% of total population of the state comprise of migration population in Sikkim. The large proportion of migration i.e. 65.02% was residing in east district only. It is due to the located of capital of the state and the fastest growing economy development as compare to other districts attracted large influx in this district. Follow by 17.72%, 9.38% 7.88% South, West and North respectively.

As per the above data, the largest proportion of migrants belongs to other category. Out of 1,46,564 migration 50,483 (34.44%) population belongs to other community other than ST,SC,MBC and OBC. The proportion of male and female migration was almost equal. It shows that maximum number of migration have been migrated with their family. This may indicates that the demographic pattern of migration will further increase in the state. These lead increase of slum area, change in demographic pattern, crime, poverty etc. On the other hand the Govt need extra expenditure to maintain all the things as usual. This is the serious challenges and the matter of concern for the state Government in near future.

Table 1.4. Age-group and their percentage.

Source: SSEC (2006)

The age-group distribution of the migration is essential to study to know the changing pattern of migration population at present as well as near future. As per record SSEC(2006), the age-group between 0-4, there was 51,607 child population in the state out of which 72.76% are local child population and 27.24% are non-local (migrants population) contributed 8.63% & 9.59% among their population. The age-group from 5-19 contribute 34.8% & 36.74% local and migration population respectively. This clearly show that the proportion of the young people of migrants population are higher than state. It may affect the demographic, economic and social pattern of the state in near future. Further 53.41% of migration populations are in between 15-44 age groups. It's also show that young and the working populations were dominated by the migration population.

Table 1.5. Showing the working and non-working persons of migration population and their percentage in Sikkim.

The above data show that, the proportion of young and non-working migrants are higher than working population. Its means that maximum migrant are with their family and the possibility of further increases in migration population.

Table 1.6. The following table shows the economic activities of migration and their percentage in Sikkim.Percentage distribution of migration and their Economic activities in Sikkim

Source: State socio economic census 2006

As per the above data, maximum numbers of migrants are engaged in secondary and service sector. The percentage of migration is very high in business and allied sector. The data further reveal that the whole economy market as well as labour market was captured by migrants. The proportion of agriculture wage labour is also high (31.09%) It shows that migrants also engaged to boost the agriculture sector in Sikkim. Further, the proportion of students, unemployed and other were average in percentage among the total population of migration. This shows that either there is lack of economic opportunity rather these people doesn't need to be work. On the other hand, it is clearly show that by the nature of activities of the migration, people were enjoying better economic status in the state.

Migration has a large benefit as well as impact to the receiving economic and departure economic too. Indian constitution provides basic freedom to move to any part of the country, right to reside and earn livelihood of their choice. Thus, migrants are not required to register either at the place of origin or at the place of destination. A number of economic, social, cultural and political factors play an important role in the decision to move. Analysis of migration is important to understand the movement which response a changes in economic, political and cultural factors within the country. (Singh, 1998).Limited

.migration is benefited to receiving economic to growth in economic development but the unaccounted migration will ruin the country economic growth and create different types of problem in different economic sector. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss the impact of migration to show the true picture to the Govt and the policy maker of the state.

IMPACT OF MIGRATION

Large scale of migration and the consequent redistribution of population have a number of Economic, Social Political and cultural implication on receiving country. Migration consists of different types of movements with different push and pulls factors. The following impacts have been observed in this study.

1.Economic impact 2.Social impact3.Cultural impact

Economic impact:-

Economic theory is well suited to help to understand the possible effects of migration for receiving economies. Most papers find that migration has, at most, modest adverse effects on employment and wages of local workers. (Borjas 2003). Following are some economic impact of migration in Sikkim:-

Loss of unskilled and semiskilled job: Migrants are very hardworking, efficient and loyal to the owner and always ready to work in low wage as compare to local labour. Low wages accepted by migrant workers negatively affects wage rate of state. Therefore people used to employ migrant's workers for their benefit and profit. This causes the losses of unskilled and semi-skilled job for local unemployed in the state.Capture unorganized sector: As per the data recorded almost maximum part of unorganized and other allied sector have captured by migrants by doing business, working in private sector, labour market, street business etc. it will affect the local youths who are willing to engage in this sector.Flow of capital: Large chunk of money will flow outside the state in the form of remittances which is lost to the state revenue and per capital income of local. It may affect the flow of liquidity during recession period. Extra Govt expenditure: Government need to invest extra budget to arrange the migrants into proper place to develop the slum area, provide education & all basic facilities, maintenance law and order, keeping data etc. consequently, it will affect the pace of development.Acceptances of low wages: Migrants labours always ready to work at low wages instead to remain ideal. It will create the fear of losing jobs or purchasing power of local because of migrants is often widespread among the native population in the labour market.

Social impact

Migration not only affects the economic and cultural impacts to the receiving economic but socially adversely. Following points highlights the social impact of migration in Sikkim:-

Change in demographic pattern: In-Migration in Sikkim become more conspicuous after 1975. In between 1971-1981 Sikkim recorded very high level of in-migration 35%. From 1981-1991 a decline was recorded from 61% in 1981 to 57%in 1991. In the proportion of in-migrants from abroad 46% in 1971 to 43%in 1981 and 35% in 1991. The in-migration within the country is recorded 54% to 65% in 1971 to 1991. In 2001, its recorded 34.6% of migrants to its total population. (Source: census 2001). Further, in-migration was recorded as 25.20% to its total population (source: SSES 2006). This large scale of migration in the state has definitely changed the demographic pattern of state. For example Assam.Change in political system: By forming NGOs, Social groups and illegally obtains some document they demand their rights, facilities and recommend them for permanent resident. Due to large scale of influx and hunger of power of politician which seen a slowly the changing phase of politics & political system of Sikkim. Increase slum area: Usually we observe that the large scales of migration were the poor people who have migrated from one place to another place for their livelihood. These people were settling down around the cities, towns, market etc by making a small tent and hut consequently increase in slum area, garbage, pollution, disease etc. Increase violence and crime: Crime like Domestic Violence, Theft, Rape, Murder, Sexual assault, Suicide etc has been recorded and register against migrants in different part of Sikkim. Sikkim recorded highest in Suicide, once Chief Minister state that 50% of suicide has done by outsider (migrants) in Sikkim. (Source: Unofficial data).Insecure among the local labour: Local labour demand high wage rate and less efficiency as compare to migrants labours. They are more reliable, hard working, efficient, cheap which has high demand in the labour market. To promote and protect the local labours interest Govt need to take initiative to fixed the wage rate according to the work. So that local labour may not feel insecure and shifted to other sector for work.



.3 Cultural impacts

Migration is a tool of cultural diffusion and social integration which create communities within community. It is also consider being a spatial interaction too. (Srivastava 1983). Following are some points of cultural impacts of migration in Sikkim:-

Cultural assimilation: Large scale of influx may assimilate a cultural diffusion of destiny country. Because when they migrate they are migrants only and when they settle down and established together follow different cultures, traditional, custom, religion etc, which effect the cultural environment of local area.Language dominancy: Definitely large scale of migrants from the large community may affect in local society. For e.g. Assam, Sikkim (In some urban schools in Sikkim students start conversation in Bhojpuri, Bengali, Hindi etc) instead of local language. If the concern administrator and the Govt couldn't consider such issue than the local languages will be dominance by migrants' languages.Identity threat: The indigenous and original tribe of Sikkim especially, (Lepcha & Bhutia) has very low population around 18% of total population. If the influx continuously increases than their identity will comes under danger.

SUGGESTION

This study is not comprehensive in the view of sample size and analysis. Therefore, before any major step is taken in this direction. It is highly essential for Labour Department of Sikkim to conduct a comprehensive study regarding the causes of migration and Immigration in Sikkim as well as to know status and present working condition at different economy areas. This will provide a sound action in the direction of protecting external labour migration and immigration.

1.To checked the influx of the migration: It is clearly showed that the populations of the migration are higher and it will be higher in future too. In order to control the influx of migration the Govt has to implement a sound policy to control the influx of the migration. For example, if the Govt will encourage, inspire and given all the economic opportunity to the local youth than there must seen a decreasing sign of influx. 2.Registration: Registration is necessary to check and balance the influx and proper implementation of Govt policy.3.Youth awareness programme: The various NGOs and Govt agencies has to operate awareness programme to the local youth regarding the dignity of labour. If failed than there must be a large impact of this migration in various economic, social and demographic prospects.4.Review in licenses system: Strict rule and regulation needed while issuing licenses to local entrepreneur. The Govt made it mandatory for those who applied for any license should strictly prohibited to others on lease.5.Migrants' worker to be allows or employed only in such occupation to which Sikkimess are not available.6.Work permit: Workers can be employed only with proper identification, health check up and work permit.7.Tax: leave certain tax with the income of the migrants workers.8.Migrant's workers have access to free health checkup facilities to maintain healthy and diseases free environment.9. Focus on programme like gradual reduction and replacement of migrants workers by locals.10.So far, there is no foreign labour organization; therefore, it is very essential to form foreign labour organization in order to solve their problem smoothly.

SUMMARY

This study is based on secondary data which has been collected from census data 2001, A statistical profile of Sikkim: 2002, Socio-Economic Census 2006, Census 2011, Govt website and Published & unofficial data. The study try to quantify the migration population in Sikkim, to assess the impact on the socio-economy fabrics of Sikkim and to suggest the remedies had to cope up the situation amicably. According to data recorded the first population census of Sikkim was done in 1891 during the British Raj. During that census Sikkim recorded only 30,458 populations with 4person of density. Till 1970 the growth rate of population recorded in between 10-20% and no migration population was recorded. After the merger with the Indian Union in 1975, the large amount of migration population was recorded. In 1971 census 35% of migration population was recorded, 61% in 1981, 57% in 1991 and 34.6% on 2001 (source: census 2001). Further 25.20% was recorded during the State socio-economic Census of Sikkim 2006. As per the data large scale of migration is recorded during 1970-1990 with the growth rate of 50.77% to total population. The large scale of migrant population affects the demographic pattern, socio-economic profile and cultural aspect in Sikkim. According to SSES2006, 65.02% of migration population was lived in east district. It is due to the capital state, pace of infrastructure & buildings development etc high scale of labour was demanded in the labour market follow by south district 17.72%, than 9.38% west district and 7.88% in north district. Among them 27.06% are male migrants and 23.19% are female migrants. In category based migration the highest number of percentage was recorded from other category 93.41%, follow by SC 2948%, 19.81% MBC, 16.85% OBC and 16.05% are from ST migrants. This means the high percentage of migrants is from general category. Further, the data recorded that maximum percentage of migrants are young in between 5-30 years of age. This is the really the matter of concern. These means maximum numbers of migrants are with their family. It



.clearly shows that the proportion of young migrants will increase further. This may impact on increasing unemployment in Sikkim and threat of capturing the whole labour market.

The impact of migration has clearly seen in the economy activities of migration in Sikkim. More than 60% of migrations are engaged in business activities in Sikkim. While, 61.48% were engaged in NAWL, 57.18% in PSU, 50.56% in Private sectors and 31.09% are in AGL. The data reveal that the migrants are mostly engaged in sound economic activities in Sikkim. They almost capture the whole economy market and labour market. This is merely a big challenge to the policy maker and Govt of Sikkim.

The study concluded that the trends of migration and their percentage have various impacts on socio-economic and demographic pattern in Sikkim. The study observes the following impacts:-i. Economic impact likes loss of semi skilled and unskilled job, labour and economy market dominated low wages etc. ii. Social impact like change in demographic pattern, change in political system, increase in slum area, crime etc and Cultural impact like cultural assimilation, languages dominancy, identical threat epically to local indigenous tribe (Lepcha & Bhutia). Numerous studies show that the process of migration is influenced by social, cultural and economic factors and out comes can be vastly different for man and women for different groups and different locations (ibid).
