    Explanation:

    Only statement 2nd is correct.

    The Global Hunger Report was released by Concern Worldwide and Welthungerhilfe It has ranked India at 101 positions out of 116 countries. The GHI scores are based on the values of four component indicators:

    • Undernourishment,
    • Child wasting,
    • Child stunting,
    • Child mortality

    Based on the values of the four indicators, the GHI determines hunger on a 100-point scale.

    • 0 is the best possible score (no hunger) and 100 is the worst.

    Hence option 1st is correct.
