India Faces Persistent Malnutrition Despite Economic Growth

India is growing economically but many children and mothers are still not getting enough good food.

This is called malnutrition.

It makes kids shorter than they should be, underweight, and can make them sick more often.

The government has programs to help, like giving extra food to kids and mothers, but many people still need help.

Some states have worse problems than others.

It's important to fix this because healthy kids grow up to be strong workers and help the country grow even more.
