India home to almost 1/3 of 307 crore people who can't afford healthy diet worldwide, according to report released by UN Food and Agriculture Organization Wednesday.

New Delhi: A cross-country comparison on the affordability of healthy diets shows that over 97 crore Indians, or about 71 per cent of the country’s population, are unable to afford nutritious food — compared to a 43.5 per cent figure for Asia overall, and 80 per cent for Africa.

According to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), about 307 crore people worldwide could not afford a healthy diet in 2020. India, the world’s second most populous country, is home to almost a third of this global population.

The numbers are from an FAO report released Wednesday, titled ‘The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022: Repurposing food and agricultural policies to make healthy diets more affordable’.
