Food security in India is a challenge

Even though India is an agricultural country, most of the people in India still live in such a way that they do not even get enough food for two meals a day. Poverty, hunger, malnutrition, hunger, etc. still exist in the country. The National Food Security Act-2013 was passed to provide food grains to the poor and needy at a discounted rate. Considering the background of famine in the country, 82 crore people in India and 7 crore people in Maharashtra will benefit from this law. The law also focuses on the nutrition of the needy as well as women and children. The decision taken by the government under the Food Security Act 2013 is important to eradicate poverty, malnutrition, hunger and economic inequality in the country. But this law needs to be properly enforced. Otherwise, economic inequality will not be reduced. Although this is a scheme to provide food grains to the poor and needy at very low rates, it is important to ensure that it does not adversely affect the prices of food grains and agricultural commodities.
