Malnutrition the new evil in today’s society

CAUSES:-

1. Poverty

2. Unavailability of Food

*Some words about it:-

Despite improvements in global food supplies, malnutrition and hunger remains one of the most devastating problems facing society. Malnutrition caused by deficiencies in specific vitamins and minerals afflict some 40% of the world's population, especially women and children. Ironically, the largest numbers of people suffering from micronutrient malnutrition live in South Asia, where a high diversity of micronutrient sources, such as fruits and vegetables, exist.

*PROPOSED SOLUTION:- There should be a chapter on

malnutrition in schools.

Increase of productivity on general items

There should be a checkup for children below 16 for malnutrition.

Each state should build separate NGO's who will record the data of the particular affected area.

These NGO's will keep records and treat the children who suffer from malnutrition.

*Further Solutions:- Workshops for malnutrition should set up in each district.

Vitamin enriched food should be given as mid-day meal in schools.

Govt. should appoint some celebrity who will promote the malnutrition awareness programs and there should be brief advertisement of the following in Social networking sites.

All citizen whose monthly income is above 20000 they should pay a little amount of money for the malnutrition program provided they will get benefit in Income tax.

There should be advertisement about the malnutrition between TV shows and in movie theatres during break so that people will know about the pathetic situation.

*Impact of the solution:-

The present condition is so pathetic that we need to be determined enough to demolish this evil, malnutrition. By above solutions the impact is evident. first of all the countrymen should be aware of the present condition so that they can contribute. We mentioned in our solutions that govt. play a vital role so we expect that our govt. will take some prominent steps to stop malnutrition.

Our country will be malnutrition free.

We can save more talents from premature death.

No more sufferer will be there.

*Some Data & Stats:-

*Present Condition of India:-

*LAST WORDS:- Children are Country’s future. if we can not save our next generation then

how can we expect to be India as a developed country as malnutrition is the cause of the degradation of social morality…

If we don’t react to our present then we are creating a dark future.

Neglecting malnutrition is one kind of killing. if this malnutrition growth continues then soon we there will scarcity of children.

Our motto should be “abolish malnutrition”.

Waste food can erase someone’s hunger. Instead of wasting food we can give a little amount to the needy poor people so that they wont suffer much.
