As of 2024, Bihar has the highest hunger rate among Indian states, with an alarming State Hunger Index (SHI) score of 35. Other states with high hunger rates include Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh, which also have SHI scores of 35, indicating significant hunger issues. The SHI scores are calculated based on factors such as child stunting, wasting, under-five mortality, and BMI undernourishment among the working-age population.
The national average SHI score is 29, with states like Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Uttar Pradesh, and others scoring above this average, indicating moderate to serious hunger levels (CivilsDaily) (Wikipedia) (INSIGHTS IAS).
