This research looks into the economic struggles that Eastern Uttar Pradesh (UP) rural people confront and how these contribute to migration to neighbouring states or urban areas. Rural populations, particularly the younger generation, are compelled to seek better possibilities in metropolitan areas due to the region's agrarian hardship, unemployment, lack of industrial opportunities, and restricted access to social services. This study examines the socioeconomic variables affecting migration trends and evaluates how movement helps many rural households survive. This research examines the root reasons of rural-to-urban migration, the effects on families and communities, and the wider socioeconomic ramifications for both the source and destination locations using both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.
