Answer
Post-independence, India adopted a new strategy in the agricultural field which led to the Green Revolution, especially for the production of wheat and rice. Ever since, India has avoided famine even in adverse weather conditions, and varieties of crops have been grown all across the country. This availability of food grains, even in adverse conditions at the country level, ensured the Government had a proper food security system. Hence, it can be said that the green revolution has made India self-sufficient in food grains.
