    My doctoral research delves into in-depth biographical interviews with those Indians who return to their homeland upon retirement. Residents of gated enclaves who fall into the ‘retired’ category according to Gulf Cooperation Council standards would be the interlocutors. The empirical study of (highly) skilled workers who returned to India at the cusp of the age of retirement aspires to probe further into reverse migration of the Indian diaspora induced by factors besides retirement-- their affectivity to homeland, their process of homing and homemaking after their arrival to the parent country.

    The study further explores if they experienced feelings of loneliness while trying to home themselves, and whether it was aggravated by restrictions on movement during the pandemic. The diaspora community remit and construct remittance houses, hence profiling them is its precursor to the study.
