Abstract	Murshidabad district, West Bengal, is identified as a backwards region in the 2014 HDI Report, leading to a prevalent out-migration trend from areas like the northern region of Murshidabad district. Impoverished locals, facing limited job opportunities, are compelled to seek work elsewhere to support their families. This paper investigates the systematic migration patterns utilised by these migrants, tracing their specific routes between origins and destinations. It particularly focuses on the connections and intermediaries that facilitate this ongoing movement. Furthermore, the study thoroughly examines the impact of remittances. The entire region is considered a continuous source of out-migration, and this paper aims to shed light on various aspects of this phenomenon from Jangipur Sub-Division. This study is based on both primary and secondary data.
Keywords	Migration Pattern, HDI, Out-migration, Domestic and International destination.
