The Niti Aayog in a press release earlier this year claimed near zero poverty for India by 2022-23, affecting only 5 per cent of the population. The hard data on nutritional intake show however that hunger has risen greatly over the last three decades.
In a bizarre development, the government has ‘suspended’ the director of the institute responsible for carrying out the periodic NFHS. The fifth report of the Survey, relating to 2019-21, showed substantial worsening of some health indicators for children and women in particular.
The USA and Europe are seeking to transform the agriculture of developing countries like India in accordance with their needs – in effect, they want a re-creation of the economic scenario of the colonial period. Modi govt’s three farm laws are meant to comply with their wishes.
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
Address: D-15, Ganesh Prasad, Naushir Bharucha Marg, Mumbai- 400007.
