Over 33 lakh of malnourished children in India, 17.7 lakh
Raising fears that the Covid pandemic will exacerbate the health and nutritional crisis among the poorest of the poor, the Ministry of Women’s and Children’s Development estimates that there are 17,76,902 (17.76 lakh / 1.7 million) children suffering from severe acute malnutrition (SAM).
More than 33 lakh children in India suffer from malnutrition and more than half of them fall under the severe malnutrition category with Maharashtra, Bihar and Gujarat at the top of the list, the WCD ministry said in response to an RTI survey.
Raising fears that the Covid pandemic will exacerbate the health and nutritional crisis among the poorest of the poor, the Ministry of Women’s and Children’s Development estimates that there are 17,76,902 (17,76 lakh / 1.7 million) children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) and 15,46,420 (15.46 lakh / 1.5 million) children with moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) as of October 14, 2021.
The total of 33,23,322 (33.23 lakh / 3.3 million) is a compilation of data from 34 states and Union territories, the ministry said in response to an RTI. The numbers were recorded in the Poshan tracking app developed last year as a governance tool for real-time monitoring of nutritional outcomes.
While the numbers are alarming in themselves, a comparison to last November’s numbers makes them even more so. A 91% increase in the number of SAM children was observed between November 2020 and October 14, 2021, from 9,27,606 (9.27 lakh) to 17.76 lakh now.
However, the two sets of figures are based on different data collection methods. The number of SAM children (aged six months to six years) identified last year has been counted by 36 states and Union territories and relayed to the Center. The latest figures come from the Poshan tracker, where the figures were directly entered by the anganwadis and viewed by the Center, and the age group of the children was not specified.
The World Health Organization defines SAM as very low weight-for-height or greater than mid-arm circumference less than 115 mm, or the presence of nutritional edema. MAM is defined as moderate wasting and / or MUAC greater than or equal to 115 mm and less than 125 mm.
Both MAM and SAM have serious repercussions on a child’s health. Children with SAM are very low weight for height and nine times more likely to die from illness due to their weakened immune systems. People with MAM are also at increased risk of childhood morbidity and mortality.
According to RTI’s response citing Poshan, Maharashtra recorded the highest number of malnourished children with 6 16,772 (6.16 lakh) with 1,57,984 (1.57 lakh) MAM children and 4,58,788 (4.58 lakh) SAM children. Number two on the list is Bihar with 4.75,824 (4.75 lakh) malnourished children (3.23,741 MAM children and 1.52,083 SAM children). Gujarat recorded the third highest number of children with 3.20,465 (3.20 lakh) with 1,55,101 (1.55 lakh) MAM children and 1,65,364 (1.65 lakh) SAM children.
Among the other states, Andhra Pradesh registered 2,67,228 (2.76 lakh) of malnourished children (69,274 MAM children and 1,97,954 SAM children) and Karnataka registered 2,49,463 (2, 49 lakh) of these cases (1.82 178 MAM children and 67,285 SAM children).
Uttar Pradesh has 1,86,640 (1.86 lakh) of malnourished children (1,14,094 MAM children and 72,546 SAM children) while Tamil Nadu has 1,78,060 (1.78 lakh children ( 1,20,076 MAM children and 57,984 SAM children) Next closely, Assam has 1,76,462 (1.76 lakh) cases of malnutrition (1,17,016 MAM children and 59,446 SAM children) and Telangana 1,52,524 (1.52 lakh, 95,033 MAM and 57,491 SAM children).
New Delhi is not far behind. The combined number of SAM and MAM children in the national capital is 1,17,345 (1.17 lakh) with 20,122 MAM children and 97,223 SAM children.
The latest figure available on malnourished children comes from the NFHS-4 (National Family Health Survey) in 2015-16, which found 38.4% of children under five are short for their age and 21% are losing weight or are underweight for age. height in India.
The NFHS-5, released in December last year, which provided figures for 22 states and UT, also presented a grim picture and showed that malnutrition had increased among children in 2019-2020 compared to 2015-16 in 22 states and UT. In addition, India has fallen to position 101 in the 2021 Global Hunger Index (GHI) out of 116 countries, from its position 94 in 2020 and is behind its neighbors Pakistan, Bangladesh and the United States, Nepal.
To combat the high persistence of malnutrition in the country, the Center launched the Poshan Abhiyan program in 2018 to reduce low birth weight, stunting, malnutrition and anemia in children, adolescents and women. According to the 2011 census, there are more than 46 million children in the country.
Only 6% of Indian farmers benefit from MSP
The minimum support price (MSP) is a “floor price” for any crop that the government considers remunerative for farmers and therefore deserves “support.” It is also the price that government agencies pay each time they buy.
- Currently, the Center establishes the EMP for 23 agricultural products: 7 cereals (rice, wheat, corn, bajra, jowar, ragi and barley), 5 legumes (chana, arhar / tur, urad, moong and masur), 7 oilseeds ( rapeseed-mustard). , peanuts, soybeans, sunflower, sesame, safflower and nigerse) and 4 commercial crops (cotton, sugar cane, copra and raw jute).
- “Only 6% of Indian farmers benefit from Minimum Support Prices (MSP).” This figure is cited so widely, especially in the context of the Agricultural Trade and Trade (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, that it has become a fact or even a no-brainer.
What is, is not counted ?
- The apparent source of the 6% figure is the Food Corporation of India’s (FCI) High Level Restructuring Committee led by Shanta Kumar. Their report, released in January 2015, indicated that only 5.21 million of the estimated 90.20 million farm households in the country in 2012-13 had sold rice and wheat to a public procurement agency. In other words, less than 5.8%.
- The committee, in turn, based its analysis on the report “Key Indicators of the Situation of Farming Households in India” from the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) for the 2012-13 cropping season (July-June) .
- However, Shanta Kumar’s panel only looked at paddy rice (unmilled rice) and wheat. Although a large part of government procurement is undoubtedly limited to these two cereals; the 76.49 million tonnes (mt) of rice and 38.99 mt of wheat purchased by the FCI and state agencies in 2019-20 were worth almost 215 billion rupees in their respective MSPs. – other cultures must also be taken into account.
- The attached table provides data on the acquisition of the main crops during 2019-20; paddy rice / rice and wheat by FCI; chana (chickpea), arhar / tur (pigeon pea), moong (green chickpea), peanuts and rapeseed mustard by the National Marketing Federation of Agricultural Cooperatives of India (NAFED); and cotton from the Cotton Corporation of India.
- This also includes the purchase of milk by dairy cooperatives, which are largely quasi-governmental organizations that pay guaranteed prices to farmers, although technically they are not MSPs. Their harvest averaged 507.69 lakh kg per day or 18.53 tonnes per year in 2018-2019.
- It can be seen that obtaining these crops is not negligible compared to their estimated production. The proportions range from 29.5% to more than 43% for paddy rice, wheat and cotton, 18-19% for chana and arhar / tur, 10% for milk and 7-9% for mustard. and peanuts.
- The above percentages would be even higher if calculated against actual farmers’ sales. Take the case of milk, where government production estimates are likely to be higher.
- But even assuming the production figure of 187.75 tons for 2018-2019 is correct, no more than half (say 90 tons) would constitute a marketable surplus after self-consumption by farm households.
- The share of cooperative acquisitions, for which there is authentic data from the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), will represent at least a fifth of the marketable surplus of milk.
- Aside from milk, sugarcane is another crop that is not purchased by government agencies per se. However, sugarcane prices are set by the government, and sugar factories are legally bound to pay the Center’s Fair and Remunerative Price (FRP) within 14 days of purchase.
- They buy about 80% of the total crop produced. The FRP value of the cane crushed by them in the 2019-20 season alone (October-September) was Rs 75,585 million.
An understatement
- So how does all of this fit with the theory that “only 6% of farmers get PSM”? The answer is that this repeated number is clearly an understatement. This is so even if only rice and wheat have been taken into account.
- According to the aforementioned NSSO report, 44.84 million, or almost half of the estimated 90.2 million farm households in India, grew rice in July-December 2012 and 8.46 million in January-June 2013..
- Also, 35.23 million (39%) grew wheat that year. If 43.4% of India’s paddy / rice production and 36.2% of wheat were actually purchased by government agencies, it is clear that the MSP benefits would have been much higher than the 5.8% figure indicated in the committee report by Shanta Kumar.
- The Ministry of Food’s own data shows that 11.06 million rice producers and 4.06 million wheat producers benefited from the MSP’s acquisitions in 2019-20.
- Even after removing the double counting (farmers in Punjab and Haryana grow both crops), they would total between 13 and 13.5 million, well above Shanta Kumar’s panel estimate of 5.21 millions.
- The analysis can also be extended to other cultures. The NSSO report estimated the total number of cotton-producing households at 7.55 million and that of sugarcane at 6.2 million.
- Up to 10 million of them may have used MSP or FRP. The BNDG 2018-19 annual report placed the total number of producer members of dairy cooperatives at 16.93 million.
- Even if half of them were not regular payers, there would still be 8 million farmers who today sell milk at a guaranteed minimum price. The presence of cooperatives also ensures that private dairies pay rates closer to those of the trainers.
- Overall, it can be reasonably inferred that the current PSM / Price Guarantee system covers more than 25 million farmers of all crops, including pulses and oilseeds.
- According to the denominator, the 2015-16 agricultural census places the total number of farms in operation at 146.45 million, which corresponds to between 15% and 25%. Certainly not 6%.

Northern Ireland after Britain’s departure from the EU
The specter of Britain’s hasty exit from the EU, which has been closing in almost since the June 2016 referendum, has returned, months before the country’s planned departure on December 31.
- But that’s not the most important feature of this week’s controversial legislation. which aims to replace the Irish protocol to the UK’s withdrawal agreement with the EU.
- With the new bill, the government seeks to crush parts of the Withdrawal Agreement, which Prime Minister Boris Johnson signed with his 27 counterparts last October.
- The agreement aimed to avoid a hard border between Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom, and the Republic of Ireland, a member of the EU.
- According to the Northern Ireland Protocol, which is part of the agreement, the region would have to follow certain EU rules when it comes to trading with the Republic of Ireland.
- The new law, the Finance and Internal Market Act, could override the legal force of the Withdrawal Agreement, which sparked angry reactions in Belfast.
- The latter, which Prime Minister Boris Johnson abolished along with his 27 counterparts last October and now wants to leave, would revoke the terms of perhaps the most sensitive and sensitive parties in the untying of the UK’s 47-year relationship with the United States. .
- When the Secretary of Northern Ireland informed the House of Commons that the internal market bill violates international law, the response on the continent and beyond was utter disbelief.
- The outrage it sparked is reminiscent of the fury unleashed at home over the enlargement of Parliament at the same time last year, before it was overturned in a unanimous Supreme Court decision.
- Two of Johnson’s conservative predecessors and EU leaders, among others, have criticized the new bill as a possible diminution of Britain’s honor and trust in the world community.
Political integrity
An accurate determination of the situation in Northern Ireland after Britain’s departure from the EU is very important on several levels. As a constituent territory of Great Britain, the region underpins the general identity and constitutional and political integrity of the country.
- Northern Ireland’s relations with Great Britain and historic ties with the Republic of Ireland in the south strongly influence the future of the fragile peace that has prevailed across the island of Ireland since Friday’s saint Agreement 1998.
- ET Given the geopolitical configuration that emerged after Britain’s departure, promoting Dublin’s interests within the EU is essential to preserving the centerpiece of post-war European integration, the lucrative single market.
- Therefore, ensuring the maintenance of the existing soft border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland in the new circumstances resulting from Britain’s departure from the bloc is essential for overall stability.
- To this end, London and Brussels initially negotiated temporary support from Ireland in 2017-18, in which the entire UK would continue to join the EU customs union until an alternative is established.
- Neither the exclusive trade in goods that this agreement entailed, nor the strict limits on the realization of commercial pacts with third countries, were acceptable both to the strong supporters of Brexit and to the politicians in favor of permanence in all parties.
- Parliamentary debates on this withdrawal agreement were so controversial that three versions were rejected by huge margins in the House of Commons.
- Protracted political unrest delayed the deadlines for leaving the EU from Britain at least three times and ultimately forced former Prime Minister Theresa May to resign in June 2019.
Alternative plan
Johnson’s alternative to approval was the establishment of customs controls in the Irish Sea to regulate the flow of goods to and from Great Britain from Northern Ireland and vice versa.
- Dublin would have the best of both worlds, coming under the dual jurisdiction of the EU and the UK to safeguard the constitutional integrity and sovereignty of Great Britain, as well as that of the European single market.
- Following Johnson’s overwhelming majority in the December 2020 general election, which was obviously a Brexit vote, dissenting voices from the Northern Ireland Democratic Unionist Party have been silenced.
- The government now claims it was unaware of the onerous provisions of the Irish protocol that required close regulatory alignment with the EU when the withdrawal deal was sealed in the tumultuous atmosphere of January.
- Therefore, the amendments to the protocol introduced this week in the Internal Market Bill seek to empower the authorities to circumvent the jurisdiction of the EU in the areas of customs and state subsidies to industries.
- Johnson defended the measure as necessary to protect the country from external dangers. Although the government has refused to withdraw the changes to Irish protocol, it is likely to be a risky political act on Johnson’s part.
- Legislation may be another tactic to ensure the relaxation of EU demands for better access to the UK fish market. But the current government is dominated by members who strongly support Brexit even without a deal.
