Detailed Solution

The Above Statement is True.
Even though the green revolution helped India become self-sufficient in food grains after it gained independence, some of its citizens still lack access to food. Thus, it is impossible for SCs and STs living below the poverty line, as casual urban workers, and landless labourers, to eat two square meals a day. Due to their low income and inability to buy food even for survival, the poor experience chronic hunger. The result of consistently insufficient diets in terms of quantity or quality is chronic hunger. Due to the ration shop owners' diversion of the grains to the open market, the PDS is not operating as intended. The two main causes why some people are still going without food in India even now are PDS corruption and extreme poverty.
