Positive effects of migration can be divided into two parts.
$(1)$ Increase in Income:
Main objective of migration is income generation and income growth.
Therefore such type of migration is beneficial to family or village.
People migrated to cities for income generation; send some part of their income to their family members.
As a result families living in the villages can raise their standard of living.
This additional income sent from the city or foreign countries is invested in agriculture sector.
Thus, investment in agriculture increases and fertility of land increases.
Therefore productivity in agriculture production increases.
It has been observed for many years that the people of villages invest this amount in their occupation or business and many agriculture related business are flourished in the villages and people have become economically sound and prosperous.
The condition of the people of North Gujarat and Kutch has improved owing to this reason.
Their economic condition has improved remarkably.
In the same way in the villages of south Gujarat and specially in the villages of Kheda district, economic prosperity of the people is largely increasing due to income from migrated people.
Income sent by migrated people is known as 'Money Order’ economy.
They have contributed towards faster economic development.
$(2)$ Contribution towards Faster Economic Development:

Legally or illegally settled in other countries people send part of their income to their families and this amount is invested in business and trade or industry Which makes the economy of the nation move faster.
Nation's economy is strengthened this way. E.g. The migrated people from Kerala in the Gulf countries send some amount in their native.
Therefore the development of Kerala is observed today.
