Food Security Indian Act 2013 is a massive experiment in ensuring every Indian has food but will be great drain on economy and was primarily meant with an eye in election.
The National Food Security Act, 2013, is an Act of the Parliament of India that became a law on September 12, 2013. It converts into legal entitlements existing food security programmes of the Government of India, including the Midday Meal Scheme, the Integrated Child Development Services and the Public Distribution System. The Act seeks to provide food and nutritional security to the poor at affordable prices. It guarantees subsidised foodgrains to around two-thirds of India’s population, covering 75 per cent of rural households and 50 per cent of urban households. As per the provisions of the Act, eligible households have the right to purchase five kilograms of grains per individual per month at a fixed price – rice at Rs. 3 a kilo, wheat at Rs. 2 per kilo and coarse cereals at Rs. 1 a kilo. The Act also focuses on the nutritional needs of children, pregnant women and young mothers, guaranteeing them free meals daily. It aims to give more authority to women by considering them the head of their households, especially when ration cards are issued through the Public Distribution System. The Act mentions methods of implementation and imposes penalties on the authorities in case of a failure to comply.

India's National Food Security Act (NFSA) intends to supply subsidized food grains to two-thirds of the country's 1.25 billion people. The passage of this Act in 2013 marked a major paradigm shift in the fight against food insecurity, from a welfare-based to a rights-based strategy. The purpose of this presentation is to examine the impact of the National Food Security Act (NFSA) on food security outcomes in India. Using a food security measurement methodology, it seeks to investigate the origins of the right to food rhetoric as well as the elements that contribute to perennial failure in food security outcomes. The talk then shifts its focus to the ongoing failure to address childhood malnutrition. The influence of the NFSA on India's food security outcome indicators is detailed in this presentation. The presentation suggests that, in order to ensure the nutritional security of Indians, governments must look beyond subsidized food grain aid.
Our Government is firmly committed to inclusive growth, which means higher welfare and better quality of life. Welfare means providing two square meals a day for those who are starving, shelter to a person who is homeless, employment to those who are in penury. Welfare means providing congenial atmosphere for basic education to every child and providing essential medical facilities to a common man to lead a healthy life...In consonance with the 11th Five Year Plan priorities, Education and Health are being given substantial hike in allocation. During the year 2008-09, an amount of Rs.1771 crores is being apportioned for education which is 115 % higher than the current year. Likewise, Health is being allocated an amount of Rs.1315 crores, 73% higher than the current year allocation…

4 years of Modi Government | Modi Government achievements | Launched Scheme ...Deepak Poddar
The central government lead by the Shri Narendra Modi has become quite famous for launching a number of social welfare schemes throughout the country within a short span of time. Here we would focus on top famous schemes that Narendra Modi government has launched since 2014 to till date.
The jan dhan Yojna, Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Housing For All, Gas Connections for the rural, schemes in education, MSMEs, GST, demonetisation, etc are some of the key eye- catching changes and innovations during these past years.
As our five years term is drawing to a close, we will do well to make an honest appraisal of our performance vis-à-vis our promises. In any country, more so, in developing countries like ours, budgets play a very crucial role in allocating scarce resources among many competing demands to eventually enhance the human development index and per capita income…The ultimate objective of good governance is to empower every section of the population so that they can lead a decent life…I am happy that we have not only delivered on all the promises that we made in our successive policy documents presented in the Governors’ addresses, but have also met all the targets set out in the National Common Minimum Programme (NCMP)…

Farmer's distress in India: Agricultural stats, Challenge 2050, status of Indian Farmers, Farmer's suicide, Immediate reasons for farmer's distress, Unsuspicious factors causing agrarian distress in long run
Underlying risks in the global economy have not abated and there is still good reason to be worried about the future growth prospects of large economies. This was the clear message from IMF’s second bi-annual outlook released in October 2013. We cover this in the section on Global Trends in this month’s issue of Economy Matters.
In the section on Domestic Trends, we discuss the trends emanating out of the recent releases on Current Account, IIP and Inflation during the month of October 2013.
The Sectoral spotlight for this issue is on Food Processing, which has shown robust performance in the recent years owing to factors such as growing per capita income, large availability of raw materials, changing lifestyles, and conducive government policies.
In the Special Article, we discuss the key drivers and reasons behind high food inflation plaguing the economy currently.
Food Services industry along with aviation, hospitality etc. has been severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic may structurally change the food-services industry as the pandemic may bring permanent changes to consumer preferences.
How will this shift in preferences impact the food-tech companies?
CBO projects that federal spending on the major health care programs would grow larger than spending in any other category if current laws generally remained unchanged. Spending on those programs would account for 40 percent of federal noninterest spending in 2047, compared with 28 percent today. Two factors explain the projected growth in spending on major health care programs: aging and rising health care costs per person (also known as excess cost growth).

GLOBAL BREASTFEEDING SCORECARD 2023
As taxas de amamentação estão aumentando em todo mundo através da melhoria dos sistemas de promoção, proteção e apoio.
A amamentação é essencial para a sobrevivência e saúde infantil. O leite materno é um produto seguro, natural, nutritivo e sustentável. O padrão ouro para a alimentação dos lactentes. O leite materno contém anticorpos que ajudam a proteger contra muitas doenças infantis, como como diarreia e doenças respiratórias. Estima-se que o desmame precoce seja responsável por 16% das mortes infantis a cada ano.
As crianças amamentadas têm melhor desempenho em testes de inteligência e têm menos probabilidade de ter excesso de peso ou obesidade na vida adulta. As mulheres que amamentam também têm um risco reduzido de câncer e diabetes tipo II.
O “Global Breastfeeding Scorecard” examina as práticas atuais de amamentação em todo o mundo, considerando o momento de iniciação, exclusividade nos primeiros seis meses de vida e continuação até os dois anos de idade.
Além disso, documenta o desempenho nacional em indicadores-chave de como a amamentação é protegida e apoiada. Essa edição 2023 registra o progresso e os desafios na melhoria da amamentação. O relatório destaca histórias de sucesso em vários países que reforçaram as suas políticas e programas de amamentação.
Oito iniciativas fundamentais e seus impactos são analisadas:
1. Assegurar e ampliar o financiamento de políticas para aumentar as taxas de amamentação desde o nascimento até aos dois anos de vida dos lactentes;
2. Implementar integralmente o Código de Comercialização de Substitutos do Leite Materno (NBCAL no Brasil);
3. Garantir legalmente licença parentalidade (licença maternidade e paternidade) remunerada e políticas de apoio à amamentação no local de trabalho;
4. Implementar os Dez Passos para o Sucesso da Amamentação nas maternidades – a IHAC;
5. Melhorar o acesso as capacitações em Aconselhamento em amamentação;
6. Fortalecer os vínculos entre as unidades de saúde e as comunidades;
7. Fortalecer os sistemas de monitoramento que acompanham o progresso das políticas, programas de aleitamento, e o seu financiamento;
8. Apoio IYCF (Infant and Young Child Feeding / Alimentação de lactentes e pré-escolares) em Emergências
...
CONCLUSÃO
O Scorecard demonstra que há progressos na proteção e no apoio à amamentação. Mas, ainda temos desafios significativos no aleitamento materno. São necessários mais investimentos e ações políticas ousadas para melhorar os ambientes propícios à proteção, promoção e apoio à amamentação.
Essa importantíssima publicação é do GLOBAL BREASTFEEDING COLLECTIVE, um conjunto de dezenas de instituições e experts no tema com o apoio do UNICEF.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
