dc.descriptionRural Immersion Project – Village : Benti, District: Pratapgarh, State: Uttar Pradesh
dc.description.abstractIn addition to farming, residents in Benti are engaged in daily wage labour, rickshaw-pulling, hair-cutting, and puffing food grains (‘bhar’). They are also engaged in fishing, weaving fish nets, tailoring, owning grocery shops, owning tea shops, selling milk, vegetables and fruit carrying goods, doing unskilled labour in brick kilns and performing religious tasks. The number of migrants has increased sharply as has the distances which people migrate. People’s greater willingness to travel to distant places in search of livelihoods has increased local occupational mobility. The duration of migration has also increased. People often go away for one to one-and-a-half years, returning to visit their villages for only one or two festivals annually. At the end of this period, they return to the village for about three months and then emigrate again.
