According to this index at the end of last year nearly 690 million people were suffering from chronic hunger worldwide.

In India 3 crore people where undernourished .in  worldwide chad has the highest Global hunger index score of 44.7 and this country is  placed in extremely alarming category. it's been a year that none of us could have predicted it in many ways. it is a culmination of the prediction we have heard for decades.warnings about the emergence of new viral pathogens are nothing new but the failure to heed our act are those warning has contributed to the scale of the covid-19 pandemic and its effect .

Globally the "one health - zero hunger" programme is going on in 2020. the one health approach with its focus on increasing sustainable practices in and improving the overall health and wellbeing of humans animals and environment has the potential to be transformative.

the situation in India about Global hunger index in  many states like   Uttarakhand , Bihar, Chhattisgarh ,Gujarat ,and Orissa , and even Maharashtra is also  categorised in alarming category . Our  country is a agricultural country ,  we promote agriculture. But  this is a bad reality of Hunger. Madhya Pradesh is categorised in the extremely alarming category.on the other hand it is estimated that one-third of total food producer in world for human consumption every year get wasted .

In India, 

- 20% children under five year are  underweight. -34.1 7% children under 5 year are stunted , 

- 50. 1 4% womens in reproductive age 15-49 year are anemic , and 

-3000 children die every day from hunger. India is not poor but  hunger remains and issue.

India's GDP has significantly increase over the last decades to To 12.5% USD.the mis placement of resources and predetermined cultural norms  such as caste system have prevented the state from going forward.

On the other hand , we always criticise to the neighbouring countries like nepal , Bangladesh, Pakistan. But the situation of hunger is better than us in this countries. 

since 2008 India has climbed 8 spot in the world ranking from 102 to 94. situation is improving from last two decades , India has the goal of zero hunger till 2030. with growing climate variability and extremely smooth transportation,  infrastructure will allow you to be transported from surplus to climate stress area,  thus contributing to achieve zero hunger
