Why people migrate to big cities?

This is second article in this series, people can read first article in this series by visiting Cost of living life in Big Cities. In last articles, I discussed about why people from villages migrate to big towns and what they miss after settling in these towns. In this article, I will further discuses this topic and why people basically migrate to cities.

The main reason of millions of people migrating to big towns is lack of good earning and educational opportunities in villages. These two basic requirements of life force large numbers of people to leave their villages and migrate to big cities which can fulfil these needs. At the time of independence, India was a village nation with 80% of its population living in villages; however, soon after independence India saw wide spread migratory phenomenon from villages to big cities. Therefore, Indian cities started becoming bigger and bigger mainly because of these migrations and some of these big cities of India like Delhi, Mumbai etc have more numbers of people living in them as compared to many small states of India.

Today, roughly half population of India lives in villages and remaining half lives in cities; so, India is no more a village nation. Further this migratory phenomenon is shrinking Indian villages and increasing size of big cities. Initial governments played very negative role in developing Indian villages and providing all basic facilities to village people. Today, we can see some growth in some Indian villages; however, still this growth in not enough and not spread equally across all villages. Therefore, it is very hard to see any change in this trend and in coming few years; India will become a nation of cities.

There are also other needs which force people from villages to migrate to cities and some of these needs are need of healthcare facilities, need of technology, need of modern facilities etc. Though, Internet has emerged as good solutions for bridging this gap between villages and cities because it is making important things accessible to villages also. Schemes from government like The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) have provided some positive results and we need more similar schemes from government to solve basic problems of rural people. At the end, I can only say that this trend is likely to continue for some more time till government provides all basic things to people in villages.

About Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board results, recognition and Authenticity

  I posted about the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board (BSSB) earlier too because I found many people struggling to find the results of their exams. Many frauds have been done in the name of this school board and there is news of fake certificates sold for Rs 10,000. For the first time, I have found a school education board whose website changes so fast and we can find multiple websites online. Initially, the first question which came to my mind was that Is Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board is a fake one or a real one because it is very hard to find the real and current active official website of this board.  In 2008, the website of this board was www.bssbonline.com and then changed to www.bssbpatna.com. In the 2020 official letter of the board, the official website was written www.bssbpat.com. In an earlier 2019 official letter, two websites are mentioned www.bssbpat.com and www.bssbpat.in.  Online I found the mention of biharsanskritshikshaboard.in as the official website. There is a website n
