Solution

The correct option is D Active religious persecution
The migrations provoked by push factors are called forced migrations.
  • Thousands of people around the world have to leave their homes due to major political unrests, leading to war like conditions. Such a situation might not only lead to resource scarcity and unemployment, but also, unfortunately, loss of life.
  • Apart from political troubles, other push factors that can cause migration are natural calamities, unemployment, active religious persecution, resource or infrastructural scarcity.
