India, with an estimated population of approximately 1.21 billion, faces problems of poverty and illiteracy. But our nation's most obvious obstacle is hunger. Therefore, food insecurity should be a major problem for a country like India where an estimated 269.3 million people are poor. India is a nation that is the second largest producer of wheat and rice. But ironically, many people still die of hunger today. What is food safety? “Food security is a situation that exists when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life.” The concept of food insecurity is not a recent one. Historically speaking, the Bengal famine of 1943 was a case where many people died of starvation and starvation. After the advent of the green revolution, high-yielding varietal (HYV) seed technology has given impetus to Indian agriculture. There is a huge disparity between the production and consumption of food grains. Therefore, the UPA government introduced the controversial Food Safety Bill in Parliament on 7 August 2013. This was done to replace the National Food Safety Ordinance, 2013 promulgated by the President of India on 5 July 2013. The objective of the law is to provide subsidized food grain subsidies. It guarantees nutritional security for people. In a country where grains rot in Food Corporation of India factories, the right to provide these grains to poor families at a subsidized rate is an important step. The acts mark a paradigm shift from the welfare approach to the rights-based approach. It covers about two-thirds of the population, where the urban population deals with paper and black marketing. The victims of these unfair practices are the poor. Even today, infrastructure and means of communication are not available in the many districts of India. As a result, many people starve. There are many tribes that resort to jungle products to satisfy their hunger. Since they have no income to purchase food from the market at the prevailing price, they eat forest produce for their subsistence. The families of these tribes and poor people in different parts of the country are forced to eat non-food products from the jungle which are usually used to feed animals. However, government officials released clean reports and said that these poor people have become victims of their tribal habit of eating jungle produce. Therefore, unavailability of food is not the real cause of death. The official explanation for such common deaths is simple.
