@kpkdhar 36 One of the reasons for the new farm laws is increasing the production of protein and vitamin-rich foods like pulses and vegetables. If they are more in supply lesser the cost. If govt. is giving rice and wheat for free because its production is too much. Corporate sector involvement is required and there are other pros for corporate funding as well.
As someone who’s involved in the poultry industry. There has been several occasions when we have told governments to introduce eggs in mid day meals and even we are ready to cut down our profits in this. But the state govts especially in Hindi heartland where these problems are much more prominent seldom implement it, which is quite unfortunate. We Indians have to look differently on how we consume our food and which macronutrients we are incorporating otherwise this problem will only get worse.

Because India is such a large country, India does well when data is presented in aggregate manner rather than per capita. This makes people believe that India is a super power. Truth is much of North India is doing very badly of every economic, social and health related index when seen at per capita level. But, people are blind in their love for their country (not in a good way) and Supreme leader. Loving the country should be about identifying the problem and making it better.

Remove beef ban, I'm tired of seeing poor cows on the road searching for food, Once they are obsolete to the owner they just leave them in the open. Atleast after the ban uplifting owner would have incentive to sell the cow for leather and meat. And are streets would be less cluttered.
I have seen cows eating plastic bags. Many cows die due to suffocation from plastic. I have never seen any of the religious people talking about this problem.
Ayush Mourya It is height of sin to leave cows as vagabonds to fend for themselves. Domesticated animals have lost ability to forage for their food. And with the dwindling grass patches (no stall fed cow gets green grass or a few times a week at the most). Cow is a pet as well as economic means. In keeping with the ethics enunciated in scriptures one is obliged to keep it till its last day. If unable to feed it is better to send it to slaughter even. Once upon a time a dying cow (or bull) is waited & after the death the "avarna" castes were called to clear it, as a matter of right. They carry it when its still fresh after death, eat it & remove its skin to make treated hides & its products. Thus these lowest of the low castes get a fairly good nutritional protein, unlike most others. Now that tradition is lost. What objection is there in eating the dead cattle (without delaying)?
You have touched upon malnutrition of children. That’s one aspect. An equally important fact is malnutrition of mothers. Undernourished mothers can’t give birth to healthy babies. You compared India with Nepal. In Nepal, a pregnant woman is provided with the best food that the family can afford, everyone else has a lesser claim. Our women are anaemic. Taking better dietary care of expecting mothers should be a high priority.
Thanks Mr. MG. Very pertinent and insightful discourse. I request our Hon. Prime Minister, himself take a lead in the campaign to encourage eating Egg.

These things existed before too. The huge drop is because of mindless policies like total lockdown, which increased poverty & unemployment during Corona.
@@BruceWayne-qe7bs I don't think so. Beef ban always existed and just a bit more enforcement of this one policy in a few areas won't make a nationwide difference. As I said, this is because of their mindless policies during Corona because of which poverty, unemployment increased. No country in the world had total lockdown as strict as ours. People warned him to do a targeted lockdown only in affected areas (when cases in entire country were ~600 he shut down entire states where there was no corona, it was madness). Then when cases increased to 90K/ day they open the economy. Zero consultation from any scientific task force, NHRC, states etc. Unemployment was at 45 year high even before corona. Our economy dropped by 20% because of this lockdown, again highest drop in the world. Growth rate before corona had already come down to 3%. This sharp increase in hunger index is purely because of economic mismanagement, which began even before corona.
Many middle class homes including mine are now serviced by chineese made machines(vaccum bots and dish washers) instead of house maids. This has impacted incomes of lots of people making their diets further frugal. Closure of schools has shut off mid day meal schemes taking away whatever little was delivered through that means. Between the vegetarian diet imposed by religious considerations and genuine concerns of meat in the diet fueling global climate change we need a plausible and palatable solution. A combination of eggs, pulses and soya seems a good bet.
Endogamy reason is bullshit. Why are people in nauru and other pacific islands, middle east are obese and over weight? No protein in diet logic doesnt hold too since even vegetarianism provides protein. Government doesnt spend money on free protein for poor kids or adults either in vegetarian or non vegetarian since it doesnt fetch them immediate votes. Poor and underprivileged people have worst attitudes towards food choices and honestly act like dumb shits with no intention to even act on advice. Government needs to bring change in their mentality towards how they eat food. Lack of sports culture is true. could be a reason for lack of fitness and bad health
Darwinian theory of survival of fittest applies to genes as well. If a population that is short and diabetic keeps intermarrying then the chances are that the resultant progeny will carry over these weak genes rather than eliminate them. Veg sources of protiens are present but the non vegetarian sources are much more concentrated and in my personal experience of physical training you need optimal doses of meat, fish and egg in your diet for both performance and recovery. You will need to eat much more quantity of veg protien food to get the same effect as eating a little of meat/egg/fish.

We should improve production of pulses, which is needed to tackle undernourishment. As you have emphasized before that we grow too much rice and no pulses at all. Few rice growing farmers are holding everyone for ransom.
even on growing so much food and even after that we cant control hunger. This is really shameful we need to take hunger as a war and need to take it really seriously.

The problem with India is focus on wheat and paddy farming. In 60s we had problem of putting food on plate and green revolution created incentive for producing paddy and wheat. Now we need to create incentive for alternative nutrition sources like soy, lentils, etc.
Yes that’s the problem. Indians need to think as one group of ppl. Once we start doing that we can overcome any problem. Right now farmers in Punjab and Haryana are protesting, but farmers in whole of india are happy or at least not dissatisfied with the new farm laws. That needs to be shown by our media too.
Again may be these mono prescriptions( soy & lentils ) like earlier ( wheat & rice) for all regions has lead us to this situation , new approach which consists more varied and region specific crops is needed.

This is very important issue as lot of kids are losing future ... good coverage guptaji and just one thing about vegetarianism being under nourishing is not entirely true it's BAD vegetarianism if it's not giving enough protein and calories as most of veg foods these days are becoming just full mix of masalas rather than their original way of cooking and proper combinations of dishes which has been done for countless years n gave proper nutrition, there's always alternative in veg to acquire proper protein if you want to avoid non veg with soy or etc... but we've destroyed our food culture with excessive masala and meaningless combinations
Why that BJP dalal, Prashant Dhawan of world Affairs not made a video? Because this will not satisfy his Ego

@@Stallion_1044 oh please don't bring beliefs as default into every argument like a blind bhakt... it's already tried and tested, you even see veg body builders these days without consuming protein power and only from vegetables... i just said there're alternatives to it in veg too such as soy products and jack fruit etc.. for people who can afford they can eat whatever they want but I'm suggesting there are proper alternatives in veg too if cooked and served in proper way which is economical for poor to afford as non veg is costlier in india (but people need to be aware of what they're consuming and how much it's helping nutritionally)

Remove beef ban, I'm tired of seeing poor cows on the road searching for food, Once they are obsolete to the owner they just leave them in the open. Atleast after the ban uplifting owner would have incentive to sell the cow for leather and meat. And are streets would be less cluttered.
I have seen cows eating plastic bags. Many cows die due to suffocation from plastic. I have never seen any of the religious people talking about this problem.
Ayush Mourya
It is height of sin to leave cows as vagabonds to fend for themselves. Domesticated animals have lost ability to forage for their food. And with the dwindling grass patches (no stall fed cow gets green grass or a few times a week at the most). Cow is a pet as well as economic means. In keeping with the ethics enunciated in scriptures one is obliged to keep it till its last day. If unable to feed it is better to send it to slaughter even. Once upon a time a dying cow (or bull) is waited & after the death the "avarna" castes were called to clear it, as a matter of right. They carry it when its still fresh after death, eat it & remove its skin to make treated hides & its products. Thus these lowest of the low castes get a fairly good nutritional protein, unlike most others. Now that tradition is lost. What objection is there in eating the dead cattle (without delaying)?
You have touched upon malnutrition of children. That’s one aspect. An equally important fact is malnutrition of mothers. Undernourished mothers can’t give birth to healthy babies. You compared India with Nepal. In Nepal, a pregnant woman is provided with the best food that the family can afford, everyone else has a lesser claim. Our women are anaemic. Taking better dietary care of expecting mothers should be a high priority.
Thanks Mr. MG.

The rest of India's media are run by political workers rather than professionals.

Nowadays (during COVID restrictions) even ships are getting designed & manufactured, on-line while the workmen get instructions from the designer. Even if Gallup (himself) goes to the concerned family he 'd ask the same questions as he would through his phone. He can see the house-hold & the food served to the child through a cell-phone (video conferencing). He can measure the height & weight through media. So why at all, one needs to go to the "child"? What more can one get that is of added significance? Why this "fixation" to visit the objective?
Clarity of data and facts in this episode were phenomenal. Thank you Shekhar Ji.
This is even more disappointing considering that, mathematically, India produces more food grains annually than it actually needs, yet a large portion of those food grains never really reach the poor sections of the population because those are rotting in government godowns due to rampant corruption and leaky redistribution systems
The problem is deeper. Food grains only can't solve the problem of malnutrition.
The food grain is not protein but is carbohydrates that's the problem. We aren't consuming enough protein
You need to eat meat and vegetables along with foodgrains to have a proper diet.

Thank you so much for this eye opener - we really need to raise the awareness about these issues and stop living in denial. This is definitely going to be one of the major challenges that our country has to face and a solution to this can possibly help us deal with other challenges as well.

We distribute 2 rupee rice to bpl people so this report is conspiracy against india😂
As we increasingly evolve into a service economy, the poor will continue to become poorer. Only a manufacturing economy can reach the hinterland & help monetary distribution through bulk job creation
Why do we suffer stunting and wasting ? My answer #1 Endogamy #2 No protien in the diet (either no money or religion prevents consuming what is available or both reasons) #3 Lack of sports culture. IPL can wait. Fixing this cannot.
These things existed before too.
The huge drop is because of mindless policies like total lockdown, which increased poverty & unemployment during Corona.
@@BruceWayne-qe7bs I don't think so. Beef ban always existed and just a bit more enforcement of this one policy in a few areas won't make a nationwide difference.
As I said, this is because of their mindless policies during Corona because of which poverty, unemployment increased. No country in the world had total lockdown as strict as ours. People warned him to do a targeted lockdown only in affected areas (when cases in entire country were ~600 he shut down entire states where there was no corona, it was madness). Then when cases increased to 90K/ day they open the economy. Zero consultation from any scientific task force, NHRC, states etc.
Unemployment was at 45 year high even before corona. Our economy dropped by 20% because of this lockdown, again highest drop in the world. Growth rate before corona had already come down to 3%.
This sharp increase in hunger index is purely because of economic mismanagement, which began even before corona.
Many middle class homes including mine are now serviced by chineese made machines(vaccum bots and dish washers) instead of house maids. This has impacted incomes of lots of people making their diets further frugal. Closure of schools has shut off mid day meal schemes taking away whatever little was delivered through that means. Between the vegetarian diet imposed by religious considerations and genuine concerns of meat in the diet fueling global climate change we need a plausible and palatable solution. A combination of eggs, pulses and soya seems a good bet.
Endogamy reason is bullshit. Why are people in nauru and other pacific islands, middle east are obese and over weight? No protein in diet logic doesnt hold too since even vegetarianism provides protein. Government doesnt spend money on free protein for poor kids or adults either in vegetarian or non vegetarian since it doesnt fetch them immediate votes. Poor and underprivileged people have worst attitudes towards food choices and honestly act like dumb shits with no intention to even act on advice. Government needs to bring change in their mentality towards how they eat food. Lack of sports culture is true. could be a reason for lack of fitness and bad health
Darwinian theory of survival of fittest applies to genes as well. If a population that is short and diabetic keeps intermarrying then the chances are that the resultant progeny will carry over these weak genes rather than eliminate them. Veg sources of protiens are present but the non vegetarian sources are much more concentrated and in my personal experience of physical training you need optimal doses of meat, fish and egg in your diet for both performance and recovery. You will need to eat much more quantity of veg protien food to get the same effect as eating a little of meat/egg/fish.
