Abstract

This study aims to investigate the dynamics of Education Expenditure, Education Status and GSDP in Jammu and Kashmir State. By investigating a time series data set over the period of 14 years, the empirical results of Granger causality test indicate a bidirectional short run relationship between EEXP and GSDP, GER and GSDP and between GER and EEXP. Results of Fully Modified OLS (FMOLS) indicate a significant positive relationship between EEXP and GSDP and significant negative relationship between GER and GSDP.
