In previous study of Salboni (2011), 76 (10.1 %) suffered from grade-II thinness and 186 (24.8 %) suffered from grade-I thinnessMethodology: Subject; Kolia Amir Ali High School & Chandpur Upendranath High school students, those schools are situated in Howrah district of WestBengal, India 100 boys are participating in this study, weight is measured by weighing machine, height is measured by anthropometry, and boys of this study group are adolescents of 10-18 years.

Results: Weight and height of study boys are increasing with their increasing ages, which signifies adolescence’s puberty at this age, their mean height (150.6 cm) weight (41.96 kg),BMI 18.62 kg/sqm; out of 749 subjects. . Chronic energy deficiency is caused due to low body mass index, low BMI has shown low fat mass, fat free mass; Even body mass index has correlation with socio-economic status. Children with low height with age causes with cumulative effects of under nutrition and which further causes infection, low weight when enters into parenthood and bear bore underweight children ,Acute under nutrition cause of under nutrition in children, wasting is cause of infection
