Volume : II, Issue : IX, October - 2012 Rural Urban Migration: Their Consequence Shrimant and A.G. Khan DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : Urban migration is one of the most prevalent types of human movement. The
study of the process of rural to urban migration and its biological effects is important for
four reasons_ First, it entails movement into a habill: and an ecological niche—the
city—that is evolutionally ne'e' for our species. Secondly, it is the most common type
migration that has occurred in all periods of recorded history. Thirdly. It is occurring
more rapidly today than ever before, especially in the least developed flattens of the
world. Fourthly, we understand relatively little .id-out the long-term effects of this
migration on human biology. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Shrimant and A.G. Khan, (2012). Rural Urban Migration: Their Consequence. Indian Streams Research Journal, Vol. II, Issue.
