"Migrant" Workers ("प्रवासी" मजदूर)??

Most of the people working in IT companies in Bangalore are from other states, but they are not referred as migrant IT employees.

Most of the actors working in Mumbai-based Cinema are from different states but no one calls them migrant singers, migrant actors, migrant songwriters, etc.

Even the journalists of Delhi who give the status of migrant to laborers are mostly from other states but they do not call themselves migrant journalists.

States are distributed only for administrative convenience, but the country is one. To what extent it is appropriate to use the term migrant for people working in different states of their own country?

Worth Pondering...
