Immigration for what …

Immigration means permanent movement of people from one country to another which they are not native or they do not have citizenship of that particular country.

People left their own country and move to the foreign country for various reasons like, feeling insecurity, unsafe, conflicts, and violence at their home country, shortage or unavailability of natural resources, fewer opportunities for development, for getting more financial gain and adopting better lifestyle or because of issues like employment, poverty.

This illegal immigration of people makes the deep impact on both countries, as it stressed on the country’s resources in which immigrants want to stay, at the same time it makes long-term effects on the life of immigrants too.  Rohingya Muslims is an example of such illegal immigration.

In the above case, Indians crossed US border illegally and also reported they have been the victim of violence. The illegal immigration has been the close subject of US president Donald Trump from the beginning.
