Report highlights hunger in India

India is emerging as the world centre of hunger and malnutrition, a report by Indian campaign group, the Navdanya Trust, says.

The prominent environmentalist Vandana Shiva, who runs the trust, said there were now more
hungry people in India than in sub-Saharan Africa.

Ms Shiva said that 57 million children in India are underweight due to malnutrition.

The Navdanya Trust says that per capita food consumption in India has decreased from 186 kg per person annually in 1991 to 152 kg in 2001, despite government food subsidies costing billions of dollars.

The report is largely based on data collected from government surveys as well as the trust 's own material from areas where malnutrition is an issue.
