Ignore Rural Anger at Your Own Peril (The Wire)

January 16, 2018


India’s The Wire published an op-ed analyzing the recent state election results tying them to the hunger and malnutrition pockets in the country. The author referred to IFPRI’s Global Hunger Index 2017, the India Health Report 2015, and Transform Nutrition, to argue health security is dismally poor in these states, as nutritious food is not accessible to the vulnerable population, and it is likely to impact election results going forward.
