Overweight military and police officers not only affect the national image, but also cause various health problems, reduce combat effectiveness and even become the laughing stock of society. The former captain of the Indian border security forces once said that heart disease is the main cause of death for soldiers, followed by suicide. Soldiers' health is damaged by high cholesterol diet and unhealthy lifestyle, which leads to hypertension, diabetes and heart disease.
In order to reverse this negative image, the Indian government has introduced a series of severe measures to make overweight people lose weight and keep fit. It is understood that Indian army soldiers are now required to reduce their waistlines, extract fruit salads instead of fried traditional foods, and arrange special training programs for military police to lose weight. Moreover, it is reported that hospitals in India will also do weight-loss surgery for overweight military police, and soldiers with health problems are often sent to big cities to facilitate them to go to hospitals. What will happen to this result? It may take time to know.
