Global hunger index 2022










 Recently Ireland and Germany based two European countries released the Global Hunger Index 2022. It ranks India at 107out of 121, and is behind of Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and China. 

India termed the data is inaccurate and used flawed methodology. In a firm criticism of the report the government raised concerns over the sourcing of data, and lack of transparency.

The report released with an aim to reduce to zero hunger by the year 2030 as per sustainable development goal SDG 2.

How to measure?

Generally, it has been seen that the lack of foods lead to hunger but formally lack in calories to both men and women in both rural and urban areas are fixed, if a person is failed to get the fixed calorie then it can be said to be hunger.


But this report does not work on this line. It follows a different methods. It has fixed it's standards based on four parameters.

1. Malnutrition

2. Child stunting

3. Child Wasting

4. Child death rate.


There have been many challenges posed by human like: spreading of the corona that led to complete lockdown, pandemic and millions of deaths and the Russia Ukraine war. When the corona some minimises, a another challenge came Russia and Ukraine war. This war creates a condition of food scarcity and security in the world. Apart from this it also raised the prices of crude oil.

India always followed the policy not only to feed it's native but also to the people of World. Therefore, India this year supplied more food grains to other countries so that there lives could be saved.


I am not complaining the data released in the Global Hunger Index, nor i suggest, i only try to give message that India is saving the lives of billions who don't know from where the food grains are coming.

For Indian, the government has made several schemes to combat the challenges like pandemic, and war. It gave free vaccine to all, extra 5 kg grains is given to each beneficiary, and several economic reforms.

In this report Belarus tops in the list while Chad is at bottom followed by Congo.

India will very soon become the member of security council.

Hey! Welcome again. Here in this topic we shall try to know how India can be the member of United Nations security council. The efforts India has been pushing for decades turned down by invoking veto. India, a big contender, has been pushing it's demand for making alternation in the structure of UNSC. But the deterrent China bringing impediments in the way make India cry.  India has made remarkable progress in all sectors and has also strengthened it's foreign policy than ever. India is the biggest trade partner of China followed by the US.  The recent developments took place in the interests of India shocked many when India became the member of MTCR in 2016 supported by G7.
