In a state where hunger and malnutrition deaths are a recurring phenomenon, this year may be no different. Latest official figures indicate that thousands of people in Orissa are starving Nearly 50,000 people in Orissa, most of them from the impoverished Kalahandi district, are starving and need emergency feeding, according to the latest reports. Time could be running out for the 49,187 people who face death if aid does not reach them on time. These are the official figures. The numbers may underrate the real rate of starvation in this eastern coastal state but are indicative of the desperate living conditions of a majority of Orissas people.
