Segregation of Migrants Groups in Pune City, India

Abstract

This is an attempt to study formation of a linguistic enclave in Pune city. Pune is rapidly growing million city of India. This growth is largely due to contribution made by migration. People have come from all the states of the Indian Union. Among the states the first five contributors were Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Kerala and Rajasthan. Migrants from different states, prefer to stay together for security, cultural affinity and to retain the identity. Hence an effort is made to demarcate and study the enclave formed by the migrants. To identify the enclave, a city survey map was used.
