Show Hint

Updated On: Jul 15, 2026
  • International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)
  • Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)
  • Food Corporation of India (FCI)
  • Food Security Information Network (FSIN)
Show Solution

The Correct Option is D

Approach Solution - 1

The Global Report on Food Crises is released each year by the Food Security Information Network, a partnership that draws on data and expertise from FAO, the World Food Programme and other agencies to track hunger hotspots around the world.

  1. Food Security Information Network (FSIN): The actual publisher of the report.
  2. International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI): A research partner within the network, not the publisher itself.
  3. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO): Contributes data as a UN partner agency but does not publish this report alone.
  4. Food Corporation of India (FCI): A domestic Indian grain agency unconnected to this global publication.

FSIN is therefore the organisation that answers the question correctly.

Approach Solution -2

The name of the report's actual publisher often hints at its function, and checking each option's name against the job of gathering and publishing multi-agency data is a quick way to confirm the answer here.

  1. Food Security Information Network (FSIN): Its name signals exactly this role, a network built to gather food security information from multiple agencies and put it out as a shared report, which is precisely what happens with the Global Report on Food Crises every year.
  2. International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI): Its name points to policy research rather than the job of compiling a joint annual report, so it is one of the network's research partners, not the publishing body.
  3. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO): A broad UN agency covering agriculture and food matters worldwide, but its name doesn't tie it specifically to producing this one report, since it works through FSIN for that purpose.
  4. Food Corporation of India (FCI): Clearly domestic in scope from its name alone, focused on Indian grain handling rather than any global publication.

The name and stated function of FSIN line up exactly with the role of publishing this annual report.

So the correct answer is Food Security Information Network (FSIN).

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.

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.
