NEW DELHI: The challenge of migration confronting the world was the topic of discussion at a book launch here with the participants looking at the human movement through diverse prisms.
Participating in the conversation around journalist-author Bhaskar Roy’s new book “Border Crossers” here on Friday, former Indian ambassador to the US Meera Shankar said that with President Donald Trump vowing a harsh crackdown on the undocumented emigres, “immigration has become a huge issue playing into white American anxiety about impending demographic change and browning of their society”.
Taking a broad perspective of the looming crisis, she stressed that the best guarantee against migration was to develop the neighbouring countries.
