Abstract
In this paper we have developed a probability model to study the distribution of the number of male migrants from households and patterns of child mortality through zero truncated Himanshu distribution (ZTHD). The parameter of the proposed model is estimated by method of moment and method of maximum likelihood and its suitability is tested by fitting to observed migration data,collected from various surveys.
