The questions for all Indians are:
1. Why India agreed to sell 100, 000 tonnes of rice to China that killed Indian border soldiers?
2. Not only India agreed to the purchase agreement, why did it also offer a substantial discount price while a lot of Indian citizens are struggling to put foods on the tables during the pandemic?
3. Are Indian leaders, government officials and businessmen valuing money more than anything in India?

"Eating" needs education, it's not as simple as we think it is.
