Cereal consumption on a decline in India, says survey [1]

Cereal consumption in India has further declined in both urban and rural areas, even though families are spending more on it.
This worrisome trend has been reported by the latest National Sample Survey (NSS) report released on Friday. It also reports that monthly per capita expenditure, unadjusted to inflation, has nominally increased in the past two years.
