The
latest edition of the Global Nutrition Report 2015 by the International
Food Policy Research Institute, released on Tuesday, brings back the
concerns over malnutrition into sharp focus. In July, the government of
India, after much avoidable controversy, released malnutrition (used
synonymously as undernutrition) figures from the Rapid Survey on
Children (RSoC) data that was collected in 2013-14. This dataset was
keenly awaited as it provides a nationwide assessment after the third
round of the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-3), which is nearly a
decade old now. - See more at:
