The correct answer is: d) All of the above
Odisha has made significant progress in reducing chronic hunger, malnutrition, and stunting in recent years.
According to the World Bank, the percentage of people in Odisha who are chronically hungry fell from 21.5% in 2005-06 to 11.5% in 2015-16. This is a significant reduction, and it is likely due to a number of factors, including government programs to improve food security, economic growth, and social development.
The prevalence of malnutrition in Odisha has also declined in recent years. According to the National Family Health Survey (NFHS), the percentage of children under 5 who are underweight fell from 42.8% in 2005-06 to 32.4% in 2015-16. This is also a significant reduction, and it is likely due to a number of factors, including government programs to improve nutrition, economic growth, and social development.
The prevalence of stunting in Odisha has also declined in recent years. According to the NFHS, the percentage of children under 5 who are stunted fell from 46.3% in 2005-06 to 38.4% in 2015-16. This is also a significant reduction, and it is likely due to a number of factors, including government programs to improve nutrition, economic growth, and social development.
The progress that Odisha has made in reducing chronic hunger, malnutrition, and stunting is significant and encouraging. However, there is still more work to be done. According to the NFHS, the percentage of children under 5 who are underweight is still high, and the percentage of children under 5 who are stunted is still above the national average. The government of Odisha should continue to invest in programs to improve food security, nutrition, and social development in order to ensure that all children in Odisha have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
