[Sharma Ji]

[Bilal9]

well about so called GLOBAL Hunger Index ... thing is India has been donating wheat and rice and medicine's to all those countrie's in pacific and oceana or africa which are showed above India in same very index

Well then - maybe not distribute all this khairati and keep some for your own. Your claims are your claims and GHI numbers are real numbers. No arguing with that.

Hunger poverty eliminated totally in India?

That is news to me.

Global Hunger Index still (2024) scores India's status at number 105, even worse than Rwanda, Ethiopia and Angola.

Bangladesh is ranked at number 81.

These people must be liars then.

The paper is authored by Surjit S Bhalla, International Monetary Fund Executive Director for India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Bhutan, Arvind Virmani, former chief economic adviser to the Government of India and New York-based economist Karan Bhasin. But it is a working paper, which means it has not been peer reviewed and the International Monetary Fund has emphasised that views expressed in the paper “do not necessarily represent the views of the IMF, its executive board, or IMF management”.

Economist and Political Analyst Ajit Ranade, who is also the Vice-Chancellor of Gokhale Institute of Politics and Economics, raised several questions on the viability of this finding. “If poverty is so low, and inequality is declining, why then is the government persisting with the free food scheme?... Why is there a flurry of welfare spending on free cooking gas cylinders, to cash transfer to farmer households and now free electricity in states like Punjab? Why has India’s hunger index worsened in 2021? It ranks 101 out of 116 countries. Can poverty decline to nearly zero and yet hunger and malnutrition increase? Why does an advertisement for a mere hundred government ‘secure’ jobs attract millions of overqualified applicants?,” Ranade wrote in The Times of India.

It is well-known that Surjit Valla at IMF as well as Chief Economist Gita Gopinath are all very cozy with Modi and his team - she and Surjit would accede to what Modi wants as far as positive opinions for political purposes in India. She (and IMF) would not dare to anger Modi.

Thik hai as you lot wish.

The entire world deep state ecosystem is gearing up to defame and destroy India the superpower.

Though what they'd gain from it remains unclear.
