Normally migration forms major livelihood opportunities for the people who do not have regular source of income to their own respective places. Although various literatures highlights on the fact that migration may happen between one rural area to another rural area or rural to urban area, but the dominance of rural to urban migration is more dominant. This may be the preconceive notion of the migrants that job opportunities are higher in urban areas compared to rural areas.

The paper tries to highlights on this particular issue called problems of urbanization as a result of rural to urban migration.
