‘India Migration Report 2014 advances the frontier of the debate on the role of the Indian diaspora and development — a treasure house of analysis, insights and information with a global reach one should certainly not miss.’ — Piyasiri Wickramasekara, Global Migration Policy Associates, Geneva

‘The edited collections collated by Professor Rajan have provided a rich and timely insight into the multifaceted dimensions of Indian migration.’ — Margaret Walton-Roberts, International Migration Research Centre, Ontario, Canada

‘The IMR 2014 is an erudite compilation of scholarly articles on Indian Diasporas and their role in development. It would serve as a curious reading for those who see India as an emerging global power.’ — Ram B. Bhagat, International Institute for Population Sciences, Mumbai, India

‘Thorough analysis and thought-provoking! The India Migration Report 2014 is a great snap-shot of the current situation of migration in India — a must read for academics and development practitioners across the globe!’ — Yuko Hamada, International Organization for Migration, Bangkok, Thailand
