Migration, Identity, and Development: Examining the Socio-Economic Problems of Muslim Migrants in Telangana

Author(s) Dr. Mohammed Ghouse
Country India
Abstract The paper is devoted to socio-economic problems of the Muslim migrants in the state of Telangana, India, which include the migration patterns, the formation of their identity, and the outcomes of their development. This paper discusses the intricate problems affecting the integration and economic participation of Muslim migrants in the urban and rural landscape of Telangana through secondary information and Census 2011 reports, National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) reports, and other empirical research findings. The results indicate that Muslim migrants have serious employment, educational, housing, and social inclusion challenges, and the poverty levels are higher than the state average by 12-15 percentage points. The level of education is also very low, with only 42 percent of the population going through secondary education compared to 68 percent of other communities. Patterns of employment are concentrated in informal sectors (78%), and there is little access to formal employment and entrepreneurial opportunities. These issues are worsened by housing segregation and discrimination, which introduce spatial inequalities, which in turn, generate socio-economic marginalization. The paper unveils the main policy areas of research gaps in the needs of religious minority migrants and suggests specific interventions, such as skill-building interventions, the enforcement of anti-discrimination laws, and inclusive urban planning. The results are relevant to the discussion of how religious identity intersects with migration status to develop outcomes of the development that can guide policymakers to focus on inclusive growth in the state of Telangana and other regions of India.
Keywords Muslim migrants, Telangana, socio-economic development, religious minorities, migration, identity, social exclusion, urban poverty.
