Solution

A migrant is a person who moves from one place to another, either within the same country or to another country, mainly in search of better opportunities such as employment, education, or improved living conditions. Migration can be temporary or permanent, and it may occur due to various reasons like poverty, natural disasters, political instability, or marriage. For example, when a person moves from a rural village to a big city like Mumbai or Delhi for a job, he or she is considered a migrant.
