Wheat and rice cannot eliminate hunger. India needs to improve food standard of its people . White rice if eaten without dal egg meat fish is nothing but pure carbs . Extremely dangerous for health.

You need vegetables. Not just dal and non veg.

You're asking LWers, what about RWers quoting EoDB calculated with flawed approach, and spreading it as success. 

 

If RWers can call it a success, LWers can call it GHI failure without questioning methodology.

 

RWers can't have it both ways. 

Classic whataboutry without any fact check. EoDB was by economists and academia. International media raised hue and cry over the index being partial to some countries like China. So Indian leftists sepoys latched on to it. But there is no such media controversy on GHI from the west, so for LeLis this is vedavaakya and cast in stone.

Not just China, even for country like India this used data only from 2 cities Mumbai and Delhi. 

 

Do these two cities represent whole India?

 

Hue and cry was raised because it had bigger impact. 

 

It was flawed approach yet that didn't stop govt from credit for it. It was advertised as achievement by govt and RW both. 

 

When GHI used flawed approach, govt and RW were quick to question their approach. 

 

Where was same question from govt during EoDB rankings? 

 

When it comes to govt policies, things can't be dismissed as whataboutery. Govt isn't there to do online discussions.

If you get an award or felicitation at work do you typically analyse why you may not deserve it? Versus if you are wrongly accused?

Conveniently, you compared one set of ranking as awards and others as accusations.

 

If we go by your approach only, should anyone boast about your award if it were rigged in favor of some and method as flawed? If they find it's ok to boast about rigged awards when they win it, then what about next time when they don't get another awards with flawed approach. Should they complain about approach applied there? Should they question the method there?

 

If they do so, they will come across as petty/cheap person.

You haven't answered my question.

Actual number of Covid deaths might come out.

Since Covid, India has officially become most populous country in world. Sime may point it as one of Relative ways to look at Covid death numbers
