    [abstract] => Food security is essential for living a healthy and productive life. But a large number of people in India suffer from food insecurity owing to low agricultural productivity and incidence of poverty. In North Eastern Region of India, majority of the population depends on agriculture and allied activities for their livelihood. However, the agricultural productivity in the region is relatively low. Hence, there is a need to investigate the status of food security in the region. This paper makes an attempt to examine the status of food security among the States of NER India. The study is based on secondary data for the period 2010-11 to 2021-22. The results show that none of the State of the region belongs to high food security category. Sikkim with FSI value of 0.510 was found to be the most food secure State of NER, India in 2021-22 followed by Arunachal Pradesh. In recent times, Nagaland has become the least food secure State of NER due to sharp fall in food availability. The study calls for promoting area-specific agricultural development strategies, encourage adoption of modern technology, promote diversification of agriculture and livelihood activities to enhance income.
