6 lakh tonne of food grains rot, Pawar downplays figures

After reading this news in news papers today I am shell shocked. I know this is not anything new every year it happens and the rotten grains were dumped in sea previously also. But looking the figure I did a small math and found that 0.5 Kg per head of the indian population. Nearly 30% of the indian population is under nutritional and 7% of the indian kids die because of under nutrition, this is very big thing.

The only reason for this wastage is improper maintenance of storage facilities. We boost our self for building a nuclear sub marine and IBMs, but we cannot find a way to stop wastage of food and feed the hungry people. We all are bunch of hypocrites and we elect best among us to govern us, what a shame. Where is the pride of being an indian?
