A vital component of human existence, food sovereignty has changed dramatically over time. In order to ensure everyone’s well-being and prevent malnutrition, the term “food soveregnity” refers to the availability of safe, wholesome food for everyone at all times. Food sovereignty is the wide right of local peoples to govern their own food systems, encompassing markets, natural resources, food cultures, and production methods. It is a crucial alternative to the idea of food security. This article argues that the Indian Constitution and its underlying ideas provide a sound framework for thinking about the right to food.
