Abstract

After partition Migration happened from Bangladesh to West Bengal as well as from West Bengal to Bangladesh. In my study I just want to discover the trends, the causes as well as some effects of Muslim and Hindu migration from Bangladesh to West Bengal. The intelligence and talents of Bangladesh failed to protest and stop their government of being their country as a Muslim nation. But as India have announced that their country will be a secularist one people after partition both Hindus and Muslims of Bangladesh feel insecurity not only for their livelihood but also their culture. So some rapid patches of migration started to come from Bangladesh to West Bengal. Even today at 2015 though rate of migration declines but the flow continues. Though rapid Muslim and Hindus have come to West Bengal but actual figure tells that Muslims are actually minorities in this state. Migration after 1971 drives to the population growth in West Bengal and it is noticed that the tendency of population growth is much higher among the Muslims than Hindus.
