&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Modi government has questioned the methodology of the Global Hunger Index. But undernutrition is one of the leading factors of child mortality in India.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In India, malnutrition is not uncommon even in economically well-off sections of the population. It must be understood that malnutrition is not just hunger. It also includes:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Undernutrition &amp;ndash;which includes wasting (low weight for height), stunting (low height for age), and being underweight (low weight for age)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Micronutrient-related malnutrition &amp;ndash;which includes deficiency of important vitamins and minerals or micronutrient excess; and&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Overweight, obesity and diet-related lifestyle diseases&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The Global Hunger Index 2021 is basically about undernutrition. It provides us an opportunity to introspect on why India&amp;rsquo;s performance is not as good as what our economic growth should have ensured. Rather than doing that, the Narendra Modi government has chosen to question the methodology of one particular indicator used in the report to assess the level of undernourishment. It is true that at its core, the Hunger Index is primarily an indicator of child undernutrition and mortality. While it does estimate the prevalence of undernourishment (PoU), its weightage in the index is only one-third. The other three components of the index relate to the percentage of children under five years who show wasting, stunting, and child mortality (percentage of children who die before reaching five years of age). Dipa Sinha has explained the methodology of index in this article in The Hindu.&lt;/p&gt;

It must be understood that malnutrition is not just hunger. It also includes:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Undernutrition &amp;ndash;which includes wasting (low weight for height), stunting (low height for age), and being underweight (low weight for age)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Micronutrient-related malnutrition &amp;ndash;which includes deficiency of important vitamins and minerals or micronutrient excess; and&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;* Overweight, obesity and diet-related lifestyle diseases&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The Global Hunger Index 2021 is basically about undernutrition. It provides us an opportunity to introspect on why India&amp;rsquo;s performance is not as good as what our economic growth should have ensured. Rather than doing that, the Narendra Modi government has chosen to question the methodology of one particular indicator used in the report to assess the level of undernourishment. It is true that at its core, the Hunger Index is primarily an indicator of child undernutrition and mortality. While it does estimate the prevalence of undernourishment (PoU), its weightage in the index is only one-third. The other three components of the index relate to the percentage of children under five years who show wasting, stunting, and child mortality (percentage of children who die before reaching five years of age).

Not just Global Hunger Index, India’s own govt data shows how worried we should be -Siraj Hussain and Jugal Mohapatra

-ThePrint.in The Modi government has questioned the methodology of the Global Hunger Index. But undernutrition is one of the leading factors of child mortality in India. In India, malnutrition is not uncommon even in economically well-off sections of the population. It must be understood that malnutrition is not just hunger. It also includes: * Undernutrition –which includes wasting (low weight for height), stunting (low height for age), and being underweight (low weight for age) * Micronutrient-related malnutrition –which includes deficiency of important vitamins and minerals or micronutrient excess; and * Overweight, obesity and diet-related lifestyle diseases The Global Hunger Index 2021 is basically about undernutrition. It provides us an opportunity to introspect on why India’s performance is not as good as what our economic growth should have ensured. Rather than doing that, the Narendra Modi government has chosen to question the methodology of one particular indicator used in the report to assess the level of undernourishment. It is true that at its core, the Hunger Index is primarily an indicator of child undernutrition and mortality. While it does estimate the prevalence of undernourishment (PoU), its weightage in the index is only one-third. The other three components of the index relate to the percentage of children under five years who show wasting, stunting, and child mortality (percentage of children who die before reaching five years of age).
