American Dream: Haryana youngsters queue up big time on the US border

Migration fad is not merely confined to a few districts now but is spreading across and beyond the state, says Sibash Kabiraj, SIT chief. Queues of undocumented migrants arriving from Haryana, particularly from its rice bowl districts of Karnal and Kurukshetra, are getting longer at the southern border of the United States (US).

Some arrive after hopping from one country to another for months, travelling by air and road, while others opt for a more comfortable touchdown at Mexico. But the final destination for each one of them is the United States of America. (AP File Photo/ Representational image)
