We need food security today, more than ever before, because of the reasons detailed below.

1) Food and shelter are basic necessities of life; a democratic form of governance must take care of these needs.
2) We are a country of abundant food production.
3) The benefits of our economic progress should enable us to feed all our citizens.
4) Our future generation, namely the children, should get appropriate nutrition to grow up into healthy individuals, which would serve the country well.

Our country is a big one with a vast population. There is also a big disparity between the rich and poor.
When a flood or a drought occurs, the food supply absurdly decreases.
This increase the price of food grains.
This increase in price makes it difficult for the poor to afford food.
So, the government procures food grains from the farmers at the MSP and sells it to the common people at a fair price through ration shops.
This 'food security' protects people from starvation and reduces the risk of chaos
