An aspiring super power India also has a dubious distinction of being home to largest numbers of poor, food insecure people in the world. Indian parliament will soon pass a bill which will make food security a fundamental constitutional right of Indian citizens. But unfortunately this right is unlikely to be honored as long as the country relies on the present highly inefficient,corrupt Public Distribution System which leaks away over 50% of grain meant for poor to open market. The country should try out effective ways of achieving this noble goal of food security
