Addressing the Rising Global Hunger
Context:
• Given the current situation of a shock of a pandemic, conflicts across borders and migrant crisis all
around the world the number of people on the brink of starvation has doubled from 135 million
people, pre-COVID, a year ago to 270 million.
Background:
• The number of people in need of urgent food assistance — estimated at 270 million in 2021 will
certainly rise due to few factors which are happening around the world.
• This includes the crisis in Afghanistan and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine will have its
impact on the living conditions of the people.
• Various estimates have shown that about 150 million children are stunted, nearly 50 million wasted
and many others suffer from micronutrient deficiencies.
India’s Assistance:
• In 2014 UN General Assembly address, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “India’s traditional
outlook sees the world as one family and that is linked to its Vedic tradition of Vasudhaiva
Kutumbakam”.
• This philosophy can certainly be seen in the humanitarian assistance which India has been
providing.
• India’s recent and ongoing humanitarian food assistance to the people of Afghanistan, through the
United Nations Food Programme (where half of the population needs urgent food assistance to avert
a famine) is an example of its commitment and commendable steps towards humanitarian crises.
• The WFP in Afghanistan has in place a massive supply chain and logistics infrastructure, with
hundreds of trucks and staff ensuring that food assistance reaches those who need it the most and
no one is excluded.
• This makes each contribution and partnership with the Government of India, a lifesaving one for
children, women, and men in need.
• In the past two years, India has provided aid to several countries in Africa and the Middle East/West
Asia to overcome natural calamities and the COVID-19 pandemic.
India’s Transformation:
• India which was facing chronic food shortage has become a surplus food producer, this itself is a
milestone.
• This transformation from chronic food shortage state looking for assistance to a surplus food
producer can be attributed to the green revolution.
• In 2020, India produced over 300 million tons of cereals and had built up a food stock of 100 million
tonnes.
• One of India’s greatest contributions to equity in food is its National Food Security Act (NFSA) 2013
that anchors the Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS), the Mid-Day meals (MDM), and the
Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS).
• Today, India’s food safety nets collectively reach over a billion people.
