This question is about which body is responsible for publishing the annual Global Report on Food Crises.

  1. International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI): IFPRI contributes to food policy research broadly but does not itself release this annual report.
  2. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO): FAO supports global food data and is one of the partner agencies involved, but it is not the named publisher of this particular report.
  3. Food Corporation of India (FCI): FCI operates only within India for grain procurement and distribution, unrelated to a global report.
  4. Food Security Information Network (FSIN): FSIN is the multi-agency network, formed jointly by organisations such as FAO and WFP, that compiles and releases the Global Report on Food Crises each year.

The correct answer is Food Security Information Network (FSIN), the network that publishes this annual report.

Approach Solution -2

The 'Global Report on Food Crises' is produced by a joint network of organisations rather than any single agency working alone, which is the detail that distinguishes the right option from the other three.

  1. International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI): Contributes research on food policy broadly, but does not itself publish this specific annual report.
  2. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO): A contributing partner agency to global food security data, but not the sole named publisher of the report.
  3. Food Corporation of India (FCI): Operates only within India on grain procurement, entirely unconnected to a global publication of this kind.
  4. Food Security Information Network (FSIN): This is the joint network, bringing together agencies such as FAO and the World Food Programme, that is specifically credited with compiling and releasing the Global Report on Food Crises every year.

The correct answer is Food Security Information Network (FSIN), the network responsible for this annual report.

Passage (extract): The work which Gandhiji had taken up was not only regarding the achievement of political freedom but also the establishment of a new social order based on truth and non-violence, unity and peace, equality and universal brotherhood and maximum freedom for all. A new order cannot be established without radically changing the mind and attitude of men towards property and, at some stage or the other, the 'haves' have to yield place to the 'have-nots'. We have seen, in our time, attempts to achieve a kind of egalitarian society and the picture of it after it was achieved. But this was done, by and large, through the use of physical force. It may even be that, like a gas kept confined within containers under great pressure, or water held back by a big dam, once the barrier breaks, the reaction will one day sweep back with a violence equal in extent and intensity to what was used to establish and maintain the outward egalitarian form. This enforced egalitarianism contains, in its bosom, the seed of its own destruction. If egalitarianism is to endure, it has to be based not on the possession of the maximum material goods by a few or by all but on voluntary, enlightened renunciation of those goods which cannot be shared by others or can be enjoyed only at the expense of others.

Passage (extract): The work which Gandhiji had taken up was not only regarding the achievement of political freedom but also the establishment of a new social order based on truth and non-violence, unity and peace, equality and universal brotherhood and maximum freedom for all. This unfinished part of his experiment was perhaps even more difficult to achieve than the achievement of political freedom. In the political struggle, the fight was against a foreign power and all one could do was either join it or wish it success and give it his/her moral support. In establishing a social order on this pattern, there was a strong possibility of a conflict arising between diverse groups and classes of our own people.

According to the passage, which was the unfinished part of Gandhi's experiment?

Passage (extract): In the political struggle, the fight was against a foreign power and all one could do was either join it or wish it success and give it his/her moral support. Experience shows that man values his possessions even more than his life because in the former he sees the means for perpetuation and survival of his descendants even after his body is reduced to ashes. We have seen, in our time, attempts to achieve a kind of egalitarian society and the picture of it after it was achieved. But this was done, by and large, through the use of physical force. This enforced egalitarianism contains, in its bosom, the seed of its own destruction. The root cause of class conflict is possessiveness or the acquisitive instinct.
