The India state hunger index for 2017 is presented to evaluate hunger across states, filling the void post-2008. Most states and union territories fall in the serious category with only a few in the moderate, none in the low, and some in the alarming categories. A consumption threshold of 1,600 kcal is proposed to identify populations at risk of undernourishment. This allows ISHI 2017 to align with the GHI scores for India for 2017. To meet the Sustainable Development Goal-2 of “No Hunger” by 2030, strategies must target reducing undernourishment, under-five mortality, stunting, and wasting at the subnational level, necessitating regular review and monitoring of interventions.  aECO  aIndia   aHunge crisis   aIndian states   uhttps://www.epw.in/journal/2024/24/special-articles/hunger-crisis.html  cARTICLE  2ddc  2ddcn0  c82994d82994  00102ddc40708ECOaSTCPLbSTCPLcBVSd2024-06-24l0r2024-06-24 10:56:12w2024-06-24yARTICLE
