  1. Thank you for highlighting an important issue. Just to make sure that the focus stays on the most vulnerable sections of the society, dry foods like rice and wheat have long shelf life and are a form of easily transportable life-sustaining calories. 1) It is important to make sure that no one goes to bed hungry, particularly young children. 2) Universities and the National Institute of Nutrition have to work on developing innovative approaches to preserving the nutritional value of easily perishable foods. 3) Structure society in way that small producers of fresh vegetables can sell them house-to-house as it was done decades ago in India. In the west they have something similar called "farmer's markets" and are very fashionable (and good). Not everything has to be routed through a super market.
