Popis: This brief aims to brief the policy responses of relevant decision makers of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forest (MOAF), Gross National Happiness Commission (GNHC) and Ministry of Labour and Human Resources (MOLHR) towards the attainment of National Population Policy in Bhutan, 2018 and goals of Bhutan Vision 2020 on growing concern of Rural-Urban migration in Bhutan. Through concise findings, the write-up justifies issues of rural and urban migration as pressure on urban centres thus, leading to depopulation in rural communities in Bhutan. Having said that, intervening with right actions will result in balanced equitable socio-economic development and regional balance thus, social problems and population imbalance in the places.
