Every third child suffers from chronic undernourishment, and every fifth child is acutely malnourished.
According to the data from National Family Health Survey, here is a comparison of malnutrition from 1992 to 2020.
How can you change this?
The straight answer to this is – feed the children who are not able to get enough nutrition. Children coming from challenging backgrounds often compromise on the nutritional meals, hence, to support them the Government of India has resolved to provide mid-day meals to them.
