3rd starvation death reported in Jharkhand in a month
A 64-year-old man on Monday died of starvation in Jharkhand's Deoghar, in the third such incident in a month. The man's family had been denied food under the Public Distribution System as his daughter's thumb impression did not match with the biometric records, reports said. Earlier, an 11-year-old girl and a 45-year-old rickshaw puller died of starvation in the state.
