Ever since independence, hunger has been a lingering issue for Bangladesh. To that end, it is good to know that Bangladesh currently stands at 88 out of 118 countries in the 2017 Global Hunger Index, moving up two places since last year. However, we need to do much more to eliminate hunger as a national issue. Despite all the progress we have made, hunger continues to be a problem for the nation. It is time to take the fight to hunger and eliminate it.
