Column 12: Reason for Migration
92. "Migration", means moving to the place where you are enumerating from another village (or another country) which was the last previous residence. For persons to whom you have given code other than 1 in Column 10 and for whom you have entered duration of stay code in column 11, you have to record reason for migration by giving one of the codes applicable to the person concerned from the list of codes for Column 12 given below the column. For a person to whom you have given Code 1 in Column 10, put a dash (--) in Column 12. The reasons given are simple and easily understandable. Code 5 (Family Moved) needs an explanation. If a member of a family had to move to the place of enumeration from a previous residence because the entire family moved, this code has to be given. For example, if Ratha migrated because his place of work is transferred give Code 1 for him. For his wife and children who had to also move with him the reason for migration is family moved (5) and not Transfer of work place (1). However, if his wife or son or daughter gives a separate reason for moving to this place like "in search of employment" or "education" you have to assign the appropriate code to him/her. Give Code 7 (Repatriation or Return after displacement) to a person who was repatriated by an official agency or to a person who returned to his/her village after having left earlier due to internal disturbances or political reasons. For any reason of migration other than the first eight listed, give 9 and write down the reason in the column itself. Please note that Code 9 should be given only if the reason for migration is not covered by any of the codes 1 to 8. For instance, if a person had been repatriated, you must give Code 7 in his/her case and not write "9 (repatriated)".
