7National Food Security Bill, 2013 (also Right to Food Bill), was signed into law on September 12, 2013. This law aims to provide subsidized food grains to approximately two thirds

of India's 1.2 billion people. Under the provisions of the bill, beneficiaries are to be able to purchase 5 kilograms per eligible person per month of cerea ls at the following prices: rice at

INR3 per kg, wheat at INR 2 per kg, coarse grains (millet) at INR1 per kg. Pregnant women, lactating mothers, and certain categories of children are eligible for daily free meals.8The Act can be downloaded fromhttp://india.gov.in/national-food-security-act-20139It is basically a hunger related issue and not a health issue but unfortunately most of the government institutions treat it as health problem hence medical solution.
