North Korea is a country that is full of mysteries. The secrets, many of which have not yet come out. The only news related to the country that comes to people’s ears every day is that of missile firing.
For which the country leader Kim Jong is shedding money like that water. Now another secret of North Korea has come to the fore. The country’s people do not get enough food to eat; they do not have the freedom to express their thoughts and connect with the world, even through social media or television; these are the things we know.
Now news has come to the fore that people are dying of hunger. Their difficulties have increased more than before, behind which only and only Kim Jong Un has a hand. His decisions are overshadowing people’s lives. The matter is that there has already been a shortage of food grains in the country, but people used to survive by bringing food grains from neighbouring countries. But now, even this is not possible.
Food grains, fertilizers and agricultural equipment coming from China have been banned. The country’s army has been ordered to shoot whoever is seen crossing the border. In such a situation, food grains are not coming inside the country in any way.
According to the BBC report, he contacted three people from this country with the help of Daily NK, a South Korean organization. Who risked their lives to tell what was going on inside the country. He said people are dying of hunger even in the rich city of Pyongyang.
All the money is spent on missiles and weapons by stopping food grains. The borders of this country have been closed since 2020, i.e. from the time of Corona epidemic. Due to this, people cannot run away from the country. Neither can they bring food grains from neighbouring countries nor sell them secretly. These people also shop in the market like this.
The population of North Korea is 26 million people. This country has never been able to grow enough food grains for its citizens. In conversation with the people, it has come to know that the number of beggars is increasing rapidly here. When they are lying on the road, when people check them, they find them dead.
The country has come to the verge of famine. Somewhere five and somewhere, ten people are dying of hunger. It has been told in the report that in a family, the woman was very ill, so her children were living by begging.
Later all three died. North Korean officials do not even allow food or medical supplies to come from outside. Some people remain hungry for two or three days. The current situation reminds people of the famine that happened in 1997. This is known as Ardus March. About 30 lakh people were killed in this.
Recently, there were many deaths in the country because the government banned people from leaving their homes to stop the coronavirus epidemic. People were trapped in their homes. During this, he was dying at home. Undoubtedly there is a situation of famine in the country, but nothing stops Kim Jong Un from spending money on weapons.
