Hunger:-Deficiency Free India: Equal Access to Nutrition!

What is hunger?

According to politics, humanitarian aid, and the social sciences, hunger is the need for a sustained period of nutrients for a person’s physical or financial capabilities to eat enough food.

*Hunger in India* .

India has been facing serious hunger crisis for a long time. As per the Global Hunger Index report 2020 which was released by Washington-based International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), India has slipped down to 101th rank among 116 countries based on three key indicators:-

(i) Prevalence of wasting and stunting among children under 5 years of age

(ii) Child mortality under 5

(iii) The proportion of undernourished in the population.

*Causes of hunger in India.*

✓Failures to invest in agriculture, supporting small farms, to name a few are some of the causes which have stunted the smooth sail of India, a fast-growing economy in the world. The rate of malnutrition is worse in India.

✓Failure of food schemes. A disparity between the real execution of schemes for the greater good of citizens.

✓The inefficient management of food available. According to a report by the United Nations, 40% of the total produce is either lost or wasted.

✓Poverty is one of the most critical factors that contribute to the prevailing hunger crisis in India. The shocking fact remains that two-thirds of the people living in India are poverty-stricken.

*How can we improve?*

India needs a practical multi-dimensional approach to win over the food crisis.

✓Government must ensure that small and marginal farmers can grow more crops in a year.

✓The government should be implemented schemes to reach the lowest strata of uneducated, unaware and unemployed citizens like One Nation, One Ration Card.

✓Last but not least people contribute to provide food to needed people.

Hamri pachan NGO also work on hungry crirs. Volunteer contect with NGO and give own contribution.

*"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."* – _Helen Keller_

In the bustling metropolis of Delhi, where life moves at a fast pace, lies an NGO that provides a platform to aid the marginalized of our society. The name itself signifies what this non-profit organization stands for - to provide people opportunities so they can create their own “Pahchan”.

One of the main initiatives of the NGO is to provide support to the elderly. Hamari Pahchan NGO is striving tirelessly to provide comprehensive care and create a supportive community for our elderly citizens. Their primary goals are deeply rooted in ensuring happy and healthy lives for our seniors.

With a focus on healthcare, nutrition, regular health camps, and the prevention of elder abuse, Hamari Pahchan stands at the forefront of the battle against the challenges faced by our elderly population.

One remarkable aspect of the NGO's work is how even a small contribution can make a significant difference. A simple comfort kit, costing just 800 rupees, can sustain an elderly individual for three months, providing them with essentials and comfort. Each comfort kit for the elderly includes a hot water bag, age-appropriate medicines, a thermometer, blankets suitable for the season, energy drinks like Glucon D, and mosquito repellent spray.

By supporting this initiative, we can collectively help countless seniors enjoy a better quality of life. It is a small step that can have a big impact, and we urge everyone to contribute to this noble cause. Together, we can ensure that our elderly citizens are not forgotten and continue to live their lives with dignity and happiness. Your support can light up their lives and bring warmth to their hearts, making a world of difference to those who have given us so much.

Join hands with Hamari Pahchan NGO today and be a part of this heartwarming mission. Supporting them in their noble cause is not just a gesture of kindness but an investment in a more caring and inclusive society for all.
