The perspective towards diaspora has transformed. Traditionally, people couldn't contemplate external migration as a component of national development equations of sending states. Developed nations and the Global North liberalised immigration as they sought human capital. The least developed countries like Nepal endured, sending invaluable resources fueled by numerous push factors, including bad governance. However, the diaspora population today is recognised as a potential partner of development and panacea for underdevelopment.
