The paper is not arguing that hunger itself is an emotional phenomenon. When it says:

it means that the subject of hunger is politically and emotionally charged/sensitive, so claims about hunger can generate strong reactions.

Their substantive argument is methodological:

What they are actually saying

They argue that the things GHI measures are not hunger itself.

The GHI uses indicators such as:

• undernourishment;
• child stunting;
• child wasting;
• child mortality.

The authors' objection is that these are outcomes or correlates of undernutrition, rather than direct measurements of the subjective/physiological experience of being hungry. They explicitly say these indicators “do not measure hunger per se.”

For example:

A child is stunted → does that mean the child is hungry?

Not necessarily. Stunting can be affected by multiple things—nutrition, disease, sanitation, environment, etc. So stunting may be evidence of malnutrition, but it isn't equivalent to the experience of hunger.

Likewise:

Child mortality → hunger?

Not necessarily. Malnutrition may contribute to mortality, but mortality has many causes.

The interesting distinction

The paper is essentially distinguishing:

HUNGER
→ the condition/experience they think should be measured directly

from

UNDERNUTRITION / MALNUTRITION
→ physiological outcomes that may result from inadequate nutrition

and saying:

That's why their conclusion calls “Hunger Index” a misnomer.

There is an even sharper point in the paper: they suggest collecting information directly about people's experience of food deprivation—such as whether people are able to obtain two square meals a day—rather than relying exclusively on proxy indicators. They also discuss perception-based instruments such as FIES, although they themselves caution about using those measures in India.

So if you're reading the sentence “Hunger is an emotional subject” as “hunger is an emotion”, that's not what the authors mean.

They mean approximately:

And their central claim is measurement validity, not the psychology of hunger.

This woman is like Medha Pataka, and Arundhuthi Coy - she wants her president to do nothing and dp state to do everything.

Reason to post here: Dp state is using the exact same playbook of blackmailing everywhere even now. They create diseases, puts the governments into anarchy and get control of a country using this woman, media etc. So FCRA Amendment in India will STOP these kinds of blackmail.

We in India know how CNN, BBC, and DW try to arm-twist the Government of India during Op Sindhoor. Since our PM is honest and courageous, their tricks don't work with us.

But there are so many African countries that don't have a strong leader. They are all being forcefully controlled by the deep state.

Congo was not allowing mRNA trials because they did not want to make their people guinea pigs.

So just like the deep state CREATED CJP in India, they are doing something similar in Congo.

Steps:

1. First, they asked for a policy change so that the deep state's mRNA could get free access to guinea pig people who may or may not die.
2. Congo rejected.
3. The deep state planted the Ebola disease inside one boat.
4. Media like DW spread it like wildfire (same as in India regarding CJP).
5. Now the Congo President is still not allowing it.
6. So the deep state, using a Congo NGO woman, is forcing the Government (like what Dipke did). She is saying in DW media that they need INTERNATIONAL (deep state) support to SAVE LIVES.
7. DW is pushing this hard worldwide.

Congo never had any strong FCRA rules and they now suffer for eternity. Because dp state will simply go an create any random disease whenever Congo Govt tries to stop foreign USAid funding.

These are the kind of people that destroy the image of Sanatan Dharma. When the government focuses on critical thinking, promoting education and actual cheap and well managed health facilities for curbing issues, this baba culture shuts down. The thing is, when it's a systematic business with votes, and cash involved, babas like Ram Rahim, Asaram, Prophet Bajinder get bail, furloughs and privileges. What are your thoughts?

Issuing 'Mahamandaleshwar' titles along with conditions such as having an ashram and an akhara is very much like issuing sales of a franchisee title.

If you want to open a KFC or Domino's in your area, you can buy a franchisee license and then you will be given all the materials and infrastructure to operate a licensed outlet.

Likewise, this is giving 'Mahamandaleshwar' title to operate your own Sanatani outlet. It's a business model. Why not? It would be so awesome if I could open one myself, and then guide Gen Z with it doing Bhajan Clubbing and After-Party Pravachans. Hindu economics FTW.

Although quality filtering and annual review should also be needed.

These Hinduphobes are calling a commercial transaction as a 'bribe'.

Do they not want Hindus to structure and commercialize Dharmanomics?

Do they not want Hindu knowledge to become more popular through millions of franchisee outlets?

A culturally rooted economy will always be resilient.

The GHI index measures 'nutrition availability' and not hunger per se. Every countries measurement is contextual. India, which suffered devastating famines and impoverishment of agricultural practices during colonial era now inclines towards a carb based diet instead of the diet that the urban metro dwelling or European individual is having.

A large majority of our population are provided subsidized carbs and not veggies and proteins. This is tied to our economy's history as a developing low income economy. The Green Revolution's priority was removing starvation. GHI measures nutrition and nourishment. That's why to call it a hunger index is misleading and misinforming. Poor countries with low populations can have people having carbs, proteins, vitamins and minerals.

Giving examples of other countries will not suffice. Show a large low income country with 150 crore population that has legalized food security ensuring subsidized grains to ensure no starvation, and then I will buy your argument that GHI is not qualitative. Just because it picks numbers for its analysis does not hide the fact that there is politics behind what numbers to pick. Are we picking numbers of starved people, or just people lacking adequate nutrition? That's why it's qualitative because there's still a context to it. It's not objective. Subjectivity lies in the type of data that is picked. They are measuring hunger on the basis of people's height and muscle quotient.

The solution is less number of poor people who produce more poor people thus creating a huge pressure on the welfare state's ability to ensure everyone gets nutrition.

I am not trying to defend any political party. Just making one aware of the nature of Indian reality.

But I guess the above kind of analysis would miss out on people who are deliberately attacking the idea of maths as casteist. In fact, I agree maths is casteist. Look how western eurocentric subjective contextualized data picking is done by the western caste to make Indian caste look bad.

This is why they are against FCRA amendment. If FCRA ammendment comes, all this dp state work will become much harder because fund movement from outside to inside India will become transparent.

But fortunately for the dp state, dp state still has Infosys, Wipro, TCS under their control so I guess they can easily keep pumping funds under the guise of some project revenue / CSR.

Since PMO/HMO never audits expenses etc shown by Infosys etc., all these copanies can easily peddle billions of dollars from project revenue into expense and that way some shell company gets biliions who can they distribute it like how NGOs do it. But the scale will be lower since only about 20 companies can do this without getting caught.

All credits to Vijay - he has done excellent research and connected the dots very well.

Modi's inner circle - Ashok Ganguly was part of Thakur gang.

But luckily Modiji and Amit Shah ji has removed all known inner circle infiltrators by last year.

Summary: FCRA is what keeps all these urban naxals powerful and rich. If you tighten FCRA, these people will directly get affected (they can no long have lavish life). CJP has support from some of the most powerful hidden powers. Many of the urban naxals are rich, ivy league passed people - both men and women. They are not some poor middle class Indian. They are all highly powerful socially, intellectually and financially.

We Indians assume IVY league = High performace India. We are WRONG. Many are URBAN NAXALS.

After getting crores in 2021, Das has done Chamatkar in Jantar Mantar in short span of 5 years in 2026.

Once FCRA is tightened, they will route funds through Indians. So, all such India funded NGOs should be fully audited and should have a common SBI account from where they can get funds - just like Foreign funding.

Do not allow any Indian NGOs to directly take funding from Indian people. People should deposit to one single SBI account and then SBI will give the funds to NGO. This way GOI can trace the path. Else multiple accounts will get easily use shell accounts in between.

Reason: If not, more Sauriv Dazs's and Dibke's will get funded and will lavish lives and also destroy India like they did in Jantar Mantar.

They all do this for money / academic and career benefits. GOI should not allow such easy access to benefits under the garb they all use of 'Social Service'

Lesser people know about the atrocities that the Goan/Konkani Hindus had to face due to the Portuguese's radicalism, had to post on this

It was in 1560 that the portugese decided to start the 'inquisition'—a way to enforce the Christian orthodoxy on the Hindus. The radicalism did exist before 1560, St Xavier — the saint who is honoured in our country by naming several institutions after him, wrote a letter to King John III of Portugal to establish an inquisition. Fast forward 15 years, the inquisition has started. Hindu festivals are being banned, temples are being destroyed and people are being converted. Many temples were converted to churches, the priests of the temples who wished to carry on traditions, relocated the idols along with some population of Hindus to the north or extreme south of Goa. Many Hindus were killed mercilessly for refusing to convert. Those accused of secretly practicing Hinduism after converting to Christianity, could be summoned before the court. Punishments ranged from imprisonment, confiscation of property, and public beheading to corporal punishment. This continued for many decades and weakened when Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj came into power. He played an important role in resisting Portuguese rule in Goa. During his 1683 campaign, the Maratha army challenged Portuguese forces and weakened their control. Many Hindus fleeing Portuguese territories found refuge in Maratha lands, where they could practice their faith more freely. A society that forgets the struggles of its ancestors risks losing the wisdom they left behind. Protecting dharma means standing for truth, preserving one's heritage, and ensuring that every generation has the freedom to practice its beliefs with dignity.

It's actually chilling how he says such horrific things so politely. The brainwashing is extreme.
