Answer 1
When people do not get even the basic necessity of two full meals a day, hunger sets in. Hunger is a very unpleasant feeling with devastating consequences including weakness, lethargy and lack of concentration, and if persistent, death.

Answer 2
Poverty of course is the main cause for people in our country to go without food. I think wastage of food also amounts to a lot of hunger.

Answer 3
Curbing poverty can be a suggestion but it is too vague and not something that we can do by ourselves. Putting an end to wastage of food would by my suggestion to minimize hunger. Kilograms of food is deliberately wasted in our day to day lives. I have a few of my own friends for whom it is a sort of compulsion to waste food every time they eat a meal. If this can be minimized by each individual, it will make a huge difference.
