Pakistan and India in a Serious Hunger Crisis

The south-Asian battle for global domination is not unknown at all! The two powers in the region, India and Pakistan have been in this intense rivalry since the dawn of their independence. Since then, different moves and strategies to prove one’s regional superiority on their seasoned rivals are emerging. 

And due to this very same sentiment, the two are never able to have a same point of view over something.

However, according to many, Indians and Pakistanis look the same; and they proved it with their condition in the GHI (Global Hunger Index).



In the GHI ratings, India stood at 100th place while Pakistan could secure the 106th only. These positions were the least applauded ones owing to the claims of both the nations in their political drives. Currently, there are many African countries too that were able to outperform these two nations in this index.

The Largest Nations on the Planet

India is known to have the second largest population in the World after China. On the other hand, Pakistan is at 6th number. Hence, this situation according to some is more critical than anything else.

Both of these nations have a strong agricultural environment that is sustainable for the most suitable growth of the plants. And despite all these perks at their disposal, the two are claimed to face serious hunger issues.

Top 3 in Asia

Another chart that marks both of these nations in the top 3 is the hunger. However, this one is not something to be very proud of.



In Asia, the most hunger-affected nation is Afghanistan. The second place is currently owned by Pakistan and the Indians are the third hungriest nation in the Asian continent.

Analysis

Both of these nations aim for the highest skies when it comes to bragging about their potential and dominance in the region. However, if we set the political sirens aside, major losses are experienced by both.

The Indian and Pakistani economies are expected by the world to hit the superpower ratings in the coming future. However, the hunger of the present doesn’t attest to that. Both of the nations are struggling badly with hunger and the level of interest in this matter is minute.

If both of the nations do not revise their hunger policies in due time, the chances are that both will be struck by some of the worst issues in the near future.
