Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 84th.
- Bangladesh's ranking of 84th out of 121 countries in the Global Hunger Index (GHI) 2022 highlights a mixed picture of progress and ongoing challenges.
- India holds the 107th position out of 121 nations in the Global Hunger Index (GHI) 2022, indicating severe levels of hunger and malnutrition.
- India’s relatively poor performance on the GHI compared to its neighbors—Pakistan (99th), Nepal (81st), and Bangladesh (84th) underscores the need for targeted interventions to address hunger and malnutrition.
- The GHI measures hunger through indicators such as undernourishment, child wasting, child stunting, and child mortality.
