Gujarat ranks 2nd lowest in child malnutrition, reveals NFHS. AAP Gujarat President Isudan Gadhvi criticizes BJP’s failed governance, water crisis, and rising typhoid cases, urging urgent action for children’s health and public welfare.
The National Family Health Survey (NFHS) has revealed a shocking reality: Gujarat ranks second from the bottom in the country for child malnutrition. Speaking at a press conference, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Gujarat President Isudan Gadhvi said that the state has fallen behind even Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra in terms of malnutrition cases. Out of 32 states and Union Territories, Gujarat is currently at 31st place.
Isudan Gadhvi strongly criticized the ruling BJP government, saying, “The current BJP leaders, ministers, and officials in Gujarat do not know how to run a government. As a result, Gujarat is being pushed backward. The number of malnourished children is increasing daily because the government has failed to implement any concrete schemes for the poor. They only talk about a ‘developed Gujarat,’ but in reality, only the 20,000 BJP office-bearers have benefited. Everyone else is left behind, and citizens are paying the price.”
Typhoid Outbreak Highlights Water Crisis
Isudan Gadhvi also raised concerns about the ongoing water crisis in Gandhinagar, citing recent incidents similar to Indore. “Recently, a new pipeline was installed, but it mixed sewage water, causing widespread illness. People in Gandhinagar, including children, are suffering from typhoid and even fighting for their lives, while Amit Shah’s constituency lacks clean drinking water despite government claims,” Gadhvi said.

He added, “Even in areas where the municipal corporation, taluka, district panchayat, MPs, ministers, state, and central government are all under BJP control, citizens are not getting safe drinking water. Over 1.1 lakh water samples in Gujarat have failed quality tests. This negligence is leading to kidney, cancer, and other waterborne diseases.”
BJP’s Corruption Harming MSMEs and Public Welfare
Isudan Gadhvi also highlighted the economic impact of BJP corruption in the state, revealing that more than 10,000 MSMEs have shut down in the past three years due to government mismanagement. “The BJP has failed in every sector over the last three years. Citizens are struggling with malnutrition, unsafe water, and rising unemployment, while BJP leaders continue to make empty promises,” he said.
Isudan Gadhvi concluded by urging the people of Gujarat to demand accountability: “It is time for citizens to wake up. The BJP is putting children’s lives at risk. The government must take immediate action to provide clean drinking water, fight malnutrition, and protect public health across the state.”
