The situation of starvation in this country inhabited by about 100 Indians, which was once called a granary

Sudan News: Constant war and the near absence of governance has made Sudan a failed state. The situation has become heartbreaking. Countless people in the world have been exiled in their own countries. This situation exists neither in Gaza nor in Ukraine. Millions of people are dying of hunger in Sudan. There is also an unbearable shortage of drinking water. The irony of the ritual is that millions of people in Sudan, famous for its golden harvest (wheat) since the time of the Egyptian pharaohs or Toleli of Philadelphia or Samatra Kilowetra, are facing starvation and water scarcity. Food aid sent by the United Nations and other countries is not enough to meet the millions of hungry people. UNO is now sending more and more aid. This situation is actually man-made in Africa's third largest country.

Here in the north, followers of Islam live. There are a large number of Christians south of Blue Nime. There has been a continuous dispute between the two for years. Khartoum is ruled by a military junta. There was democracy here. A delegation of economists and politicians led by Sukumar Sen from India went there to draft its constitution and prepare five-year plans. You may not know that a highway in Khartoum is named Sukumar Sen Road.

In the late 19th century, Sudan was called Anglo-Egyptian Sudan after the British invaded Sudan, which was then under Egyptian control. Since the British withdrawal, there appears to be no end in sight to the persistent war between Islamists in the north and Christians in the south. A military junta has corrupted the elected government and seized power. Some democratic educated people have started the struggle against it by leading the public. Thus the conflict between the South, on the one hand, and the dictatorial regimes, and the pro-democracy West, on the other, has created a man-made drought in Sudan. Millions of people are dying of hunger, desperate for water. They are becoming exiles in their own country.
