Abstract

Migrants play a prominent role in the Kerala’s economic development and many of them have found greener pastures abroad. Their remittance to Kerala is one of the major components of state Gross Domestic Product. Due to various economic changes many of the migrants are returning to their home country. This will have a negative impact on Kerala’s economy like unemployment, family financial issues, decrease in migrant remittance etc. So, the government should take care of the migrants and the return migrants. For the welfare of migrants and returnees the government of Kerala established Non-Resident Keralites Affairs Department. The aim of the study is to analyse various schemes initiated by government through Non-Resident Keralites Affairs Department for the migrants and return migrants in Kerala.
