520			_aIn normal times the meaning of social security is somewhat restricted. It is about the absence or presence of some fallback mechanisms when in distress of one kind or another, as, for example, unemployment, sickness, accident/death, old age, etc. In countries with endemic poverty such as India, social security also refers to such protective schemes as Public Distribution System (PDS) for essential food, mid-day meals for children in schools, supplementary nutrition for children in pre-school age group, public employment and so on. The first set of measures are for meeting situations of adversity, while the second are measures for meeting situations of deficiency. – Reproduced
