The Hon’ble minister shares that India is one of the top food producers in the world and we have the highest number of malnutritioned children. On the contrary, obesity in children is also the highest in India. This shows the issue with food distribution in the country that is disrupting the nutritional balance. It is extremely important to raise awareness regarding the role of nutrition that has to start right from school. Education can be a really good medium to spread awareness and improve nutritional status of the country.
