Title: Patients Satisfaction and Role of PHCs: A comparative study of two districts of North Bengal Authors: Bhattacharya, Subhasis Abstract: This paper is a search for the present condition of Primary Health Centres (PHCs) of two districts of North Bengal and how much the inhabitants are satisfied by the services providing by PHCs. The study looks for to understand the disease profile including minor illness, hospitalization, situation of maternal and child health, non-communicable diseases and mental health of these districts. Except price and quality effects, what other factors also affect healthcare choices is another part of health seeking behaviour. The role of education, age, duration of illness, and so forth, provide important insights into the potential opportunities and limitations of public policy to affect patterns of demand. This will help us to understand the health seeking behaviour of the inhabitants and to identify the barriers to access healthcare services encompassing social, physical and economic aspects.

Title: Non-Tariff Barriers under International Trade Process with Reference to Indo-Lanka Free Trade Agreement Authors: Pal, Barun Deb; Kar, Saptarshi; Bhandarkar, Supriya Abstract: This study attempts to answer one crucial research question, why the utilization of ISFTA route for trade is very poor by the Indian exporters (30%) as compared to their Sri Lankan Counterpart (70%) even after one decade of its implementation? Considering Non Tariff Barriers(NTBs) as a subset of Non Tariff Measures (NTMs), available studies blame that NTBs are hamstringing development of international trade. This paper considers the analysis limited in nature, therefore, analyses in detailthe logistic process involved in international trade between India and Sri Lanka. After analyzing the detail logistic process, this study has also identified various NTBs sheltered within this logistic process. In addition to that this study has brought forward some other issues which are not directly related to logistic process, but are affecting the international trade between these two countries.

Title: Regional Disparity and Convergence of the Growth of Output, Employment and Productivity of Labour of Indian Pharmaceutical Industry Authors: Chakraborty, Chandrima Abstract: This paper tries to find out the nature of the growth process of output, employment and productivity of labour of Pharmaceutical Industry in the 17 major selected states, tests whether the series of the growth of output, employment and productivity of labour are converging towards a stationary process having deterministic trend and estimates the break point of these three variables for the period 1983-84 to 2007-08 employing endogenous structural break analysis of Sen (2003). The distinguishing feature of this method is that the break point is not dependent on the prior belief of the researcher; rather it is endogenously determined depending on time series properties of the series. The results of estimation suggest that for most of the states, the endogenously determined break point turned out to be the years after 1995, the year when the first version of product patent was implemented and The Drug and Cosmetic Act was also amended to infuse competition in this sector. Thus important policy changes pertaining to this sector have taken place in the year 1995. An interstate and regional variation of the growth of output, employment and productivity of labour is strongly evident. The growth of output of sixteen among the seventeen selected states converges towards a deterministic trend, it is fourteen for productivity of labour whereas for employment, all the states shows convergence toward stationary process having constant variability over time. The study clearly identifies the regions and the states whose performance are satisfactory and others showing relatively poor performance and hence needs special attention.

Title: ‘When the Troubles Ripple Across’: China and India’s Recent Experiences with Contagious Financial Crises Authors: Karmakar, Asim K; Jana, Sebak Kumar Abstract: China and India are the two major emerging giants of the world. Commonalities and differences between these two countries persist. China and India have embraced financial globalization. Embracing financial globalization is always costly, full of several risks and challenges because crises of the recent past — one global 2008 witnessed in the USA and another Sovereign Debt unleashed in Euro zone in the spring of 2010 — are accompanied by widespread spillover and contagion effects across the two countries and make them vulnerable to crises. It is in this backdrop that the present paper analyses the impact of these two Great crises on the Chinese and Indian economies. How did these two economies respond to the crises is also portrayed.
