The word might not ring a bell for those souls who live in luxury and whose nights aren’t haunted by the fear of not knowing if there will be food next morning. The challenge is that there are millions who live in poverty because there are too many people. Measures need to be taken to put an end to this spurt in population. Family planning methods have to be adopted, especially at the grassroot level. People must be made aware. New agricultural practices like high-yielding seeds must be employed to increase crop yield. The government must ensure two square meals for all its citizens. Age-old practices did not allow farmers to reap benefits. They must be allowed to use advanced methods.
