Despite the fact that mining activities are necessary for economic growth, it is imperative that the health hazards connected with them be reduced. The extent to which several factors influence the healthcare cost and health status of the local community in mining locations remains poorly understood. Thus, this article aims to determine the factors that cause a high amount of health expenditure and identify the socio-demographic and economic reasons behind the respiratory illness (RIs) in six mining villages in Talcher coalfield of Odisha. The analysis used estimation techniques like descriptive statistics, ordinary least square (OLS) regression and Probit method. The findings of this article revealed that social infrastructure, such as education of the household head, age group, gender and social categories, along with economic condition, have a significant role in affecting the volume of health expenditure. The findings also highlighted the importance of the socio-demographic indicators for a high level of RIs in this location. Therefore, policymakers need to focus on the health infrastructure and socio-demographic and economic backgrounds in the mining areas to improve proper healthcare utilisation in the mining villages.

To examine the disparity in distributional inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI), the study uses Theil index as a statistical tool to verify the skewed distribution across the regions in India and confirm the same with its decomposition scores. In order to investigate the causes of such unequal distribution of FDI inflows in India, this study uses the system GMM model for 16 regional groups from 2004 to 2015 time period. With a special concern to the region-specific factors and the agglomeration effect, the uneven dummy variables are also used to capture the inequality in FDI inflow across the regions. Our findings confirm the significant role of each of them in pocketing a major chunk of FDI inflows by a few regions. To recommend the policymakers, the present study proposes a balanced growth perspective and a comprehensive framework mitigating labour reforms, industrial productivity and FDI policy.

Focussing on the importance of FDI outflows (OFDI) from Asian developing countries, this study examines the impact of export, institutions and financial development on OFDI. Using a balanced panel of 10 Asian developing countries during 2002-2016, this study employs the Pooled Mean Group (PMG) cointegration test and Granger causality test of Dumitrescu and Hurlin (2012) to explore the long-run causal relationship. To validate the results robustness test is conducted. Overall, the findings show that improvement in institutions encourages OFDI in the short-run, but it impedes more OFDI in the long-run. The financial development and export are positively related to OFDI in the long-run. The Granger causality test confirms that there is a unidirectional causality that runs from the quality of institutions and financial development to OFDI, while OFDI induces more export.
