Compare fig a and b and find out the variation in the rate of migration streams- both intra-state & inter-state.

Explanation

The migration can be classified into two types: internal migration (within the countryl and external). Migration (between the countries). Under the internal migration there are four streams. (a) rural to rural (R-R), (b) rural to urban (R-U), (c ) urban to urban (U-U), and (d) urban to rural (U-R), In India, during 2001, out of 315 million migrants, enumerated on the basis of the last residence, 98 million had changed their place of residence in the last ten years . Out of these, 81 million were intra-state migrants. The stream was dominated by female migrants. Most of these were migrants related to marriage. The distribution of male and female migrants in different streams of intra-state and inter-state migration is presented in `2.1` (a) and `2.1` (b) . It is clearly evident that female predominate the streams of short distance rural to rural migration in both types of migration. Contrary ti this, men predominate the rural to urban stream of inter-state migration due to economic reasons.
