Directions for Question 61: Read the given passage and choose the correct option to the questions
given at the end of the passage. The answers should be based on the information given in the
passage.
The recent report that India is raising a whole generation of underfed and malnourished population is
alarming but not surprising. With forty percent of the rural population and thirty percent of the urban
population living below poverty line, it is to be expected that children will not get either the right
type of food or the right type of nutrition. Even otherwise, the daily intake of vital food of most
Indians is far below the recommended levels and the worst affected are, of course, the women and
the children. Small wonder that fifty percent of children below the age of five are said to be
deficient in proteins and micro-nutrients that are crucial for the development of the brain or that
large number of school-going children suffer from poor memory and other associated learning
problems. Ironically, the much-hyped green revolution may have brought in bumper harvests of
rice and wheat which have no doubt helped to eliminate instances of severe malnutrition, but it has
also led to virtual disappearance of coarse grains, millets, and pulses that were the traditional
sources of required nutrients in the diets of ordinary Indians, especially vegetarians.
Similarly, the white revolution may have made India one of the biggest producers of milk, but it is not
reaching those who need it most. So, malnutrition begins at conception and carries on through the
developing years and even beyond. According to experts, most Indians at present were functioning
at “around twenty percent of capacity”. Malnutrition, in fact, is a malady that has for long dogged
the nation, and it will continue to do so if it is not treated with the right mix of policies, those that will
focus on food production, ensure household food security and promote healthy diets, especially
among the poor who, in
absence of adequate healthcare spend much of their meagre wages on medicines rather than the right
food. Food fads and prejudices also take their toll and nutrition programmes like midday meal
schemes based on
bread and fungus-ridden biscuits serve little purpose. Perhaps as suggested by nutritionists, a national
nutrition emergency is called for.
61. White revolution was not completely successful because:
a. It focussed only on vegetarian diet.
b. It led to virtual disappearance of coarse grains, millets, and pulses. c. It could only ensure
household food security.
d. Poor people were still not getting enough nutrition.
