Migration

The declining economic feasibility of agriculture, and increasing debts of the farmers in Kosgi mandal has forced them to migrate to the metropolitan cities like Hyderabad and especially Mumbai, where they work mostly as laborer in construction work. The government's efforts, to restore the normal situation using projects like Self Help Groups [8] [9] and Food for Work program [10] [11] have been ineffective. [12] [13]
