520 |a People from the Bhojpur region (Uttar Pradesh and Bihar) in India were recruited around 1900 to work on overseas plantation colonies. This fascinating study shows why they left and how they kept certain aspects of their culture alive for generations. So deeply rooted was this culture, that even today it is extant among Hindustani in Suriname and The Netherlands 
520 |a The period between the late nineteenth century and the early twentieth century was marked by a massive global churning in the form of the migration of huge populations of Indians to various countries like Suriname, Fiji, Mauritius, Guyana, Trinidad, and other Caribbean countries. All these Indians, most of whom belonged to the Bhojpuri region of Bihar but some also to the Awadh and Magadh regions of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, were taken to work as indentured labourers in plantations owned by colonial countries like United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands. This migration on such a large scale has left a lasting impression on world history as it made deep inroads into the psyche of millions of people all over the world. Its effects can be seen even today in various forms and the question K̀ahe gaile bides' (Why did you go overseas?) still underlies the literature and culture of both the people of the Bhojpuri region of India and of the descendants of the original migrants who stayed on in the destination countries after the period of indentureship ended. At present, although these people of Indian origin have become a part of the native population of these countries and form significant minority groups there, they have preserved the language and culture of their ancestors even while imbibing the culture and language of their destination countries through a long process of acculturation
