why has india lnever had a famine of the level which occured in china in 1958-61

Answer 1

Answer:

In China's famine of 1958-61, nearly three crore people died. Yet India did not have a famine of the kind China had. The reason was the difference in the economic policies of the two countries. Democratic government in India responded to the food shortage in a way that Chinese government did not.
