With the Alternative for Germany(AfD) party approaching the 25 per cent mark, the hard-right politics is felt in every social sphere across the country including government offices, schools, and interactions with civil servants(Ozkan& Madanoglu, 2025). Emigration considerations are noted to be particularly pronounced in the case of perceived discrimination in contact with the police (49 per cent), the public sphere(36 per cent), the workplace(35 per cent), the housing market(33 per cent) and public offices and educational institutions (31 per cent and 32 per cent each)(Kosyakova, et al., 2025).

With the manufacturing sector(27 per cent), trade, transport and warehousing(24 per cent) and building trade (22 per cent) following close behind(Kosyakova, et al., 2025). 11 Building Pathways: Addressing Challenges in the Germany–India Migration Corridor
