Abstract

Acknowledging the paucity of studies on quality of life at destination and source (especially) in the case of seasonal migration, the article attempts to (a) assess the disparities is quality of life at destination and source villages, (b) find out the extent of deprivation of quality of life indicators at destination, and (c) look into the violation of human rights at destination. The empirical evidence suggests distressed conditions coupled with the system of advance play crucial role for migration. Savings of a majority of migrants are meagre. Moreover, there is severe deterioration in the quality of life at destination on crucial indicators and human rights are violated. Migrants make the compromise on quality of life as they come to live, i.e., to survive.
