Malnutrition is a major problem in India, affecting a large portion of the population, especially children and women. The causes of malnutrition in India include poverty, lack of access to nutritious food, inadequate knowledge about nutrition, and poor sanitation. The Indian government and various non-government organizations are working to address malnutrition through initiatives such as supplementary nutrition programs, fortification of staple foods, and public awareness campaigns. However, much more needs to be done to effectively combat malnutrition and ensure that all Indians have access to adequate nutrition.
