Hello there! I am Kajal Gupta.
I'm a student of law. In the recent year of 2022 I became a volunteer and active worker with Hamari Pahchan NGO. The NGO worked on multiple projects and intiatives on social causes like Covid-19 relief, skill development, Dristi etc. One among them is combacting hunger- this project has greatly inspired me and I have decided to lead it on my own.
According to FAQ estimate in 'The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World, 2020 report, 189.2 million people are undernourished in India. By this measure above 14% of the population us undernourished in India. Malnourished children have higher risk of death from common childhood illnesses such as diarrhea, pneumonia and malaria.
the Global Hunger Index ranks India at 101 out of 116 countries .
However, India has good economic growth and produces sufficient food to feed it's population, it is unable to provide access to food to a large number of people, especially women and children.
Therfore, my aim is to feed number of people with atleast one meal a day.
So, kindly help in this noble cause .
