Developing the Thought on Students Migration (Which Here Termed As Brain Drain) From Rural Parts of West Bengal and Its Lasting Impact on Society As Well As On the State for Gainful Research: An Empirical Study

In general parlance, the present study is an attempt to understand the root causes behind student migration from rural parts of West Bengal and its overall impacts on society as well as on the state. The number of students migrate from rural parts of Bengal is increasing tremendously. The aim and objective and ultimate preferences of studying outside the state, is that, students always prefer to get the option in which they are interested in and in which they want their specialization, which they might not be getting in their native colleges and Universities. The degree which they obtain from that universities or colleges from that states is considered to be worth when it comes to searching a good job in any place. The other benefit of obtaining the degree is most of the universities or colleges allow the students to go abroad for completing their final semester. A chance to get educated at any foreign land might be a distant dream for any middle class students. Moreover, apart from these factors there are some key factors like quality education, potential placement, a good standard of living, and especially a very poor job opportunities and lower pay scales in the domestic areas are among the most important reasons for thinking of migration. There is no doubt that the overall economic development of the rural parts of Bengal largely depends on the people, especially on the young generations to a great extent. If the generation leaves or migrate to other states for searching of a better future, It should be considered as brain drain of intellectual resource.Therefore the study initially indicated that constant and comprehensive monitoring of the trend, and if possible a regular evaluation process has to be implemented in the educational institutions to observe the parameter of the trend. The trend cannot be eradicated permanently , until and unless State Government, Panchayet, Bank assistance (Easiest way to get Student’s loan for higher studies),and above all a State-Central placement cell run and governed by affiliated Universities are not established immediately.
