Census shows migration from China rising
More and more Chinese are migrating to India although their number in absolute terms totals but a few thousand.
The just-published Migration Data of Census of India 2001 reveals that the Chinese inflow is driven mainly by work/employment, business and education.
Apparently because of the improving bilateral ties, a total of 11,029 Chinese - 6,702 men and 1,983 women - came during 1991-2001.
The break-up for this period is: 3,457 during 1991-1996; 4,873 between 1997 and 2000; and 383 during 2000-01. A total of 2,360 Chinese migrated during the 1980s, while 11,588 have been in India for 20 years and above.

The overall data shows that international migration has declined by 31.6% from 6.9 million in 1991 to 6.1 million in 2001, which is on the expected lines.
"Largescale migration from across the border seems to have declined, except Bangladesh," notes the Census Commission.
After 30,84,826 migrants from Bangladesh, Pakistan comes next (9,97,106), followed by Nepal (5,96,696), Sri Lanka (1,49,300), Myanmar (49,086), China (23,721), Afghanistan (9,194) and Bhutan (8,337).
