Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Malnourishment and starvation has taken its toll twice on Subash Bheel (a resident of Hingua village, in Badwani district in Madhya Pradesh) who lost 2 of his children (Rakesh and Gaurav) in the last two months. Subhash is a landless tribal with no means of livelihood. This year, the panchayat could provide work for only two days and each day’s work fetches a meager amount of Rs 20. Subhash’s family consists of 9 members and there is barely, ½ a kg of flour (Atta) at his house. Under such deplorable conditions, a helpless and hopeless Subhash says that, he could not even provide medical facility to his dying children. The lives of three more innocent children of this village, have been laid down at the alter of malnutrition and food insecurity.
