CBSE Notes for Food Security in India
- The poorest section of the society remains food insecure all the times. People above poverty line might also feel food insecure in times of natural calamity like earthquake, drought, flood, tsunami, etc.
- Natural calamities may lead to starvation. Starvation in longer run turns into famine.
- A famine is characterised by wide spread deaths due to starvation and epidemics caused by forced use of contaminated water or decaying water or decaying food and loss of body resistance due to weakening from starvation. Please refer Food Security in India Class 9 Notes for more revision notes.
