Security agencies intentionally reduce food supplied to their employees, claim fitness

When the videos of the BSF jawan, Tej Bahadur Yadav went viral, complaining about the poor quality of the food provided to the jawans, allegedly because senior officials were stealing the food money, the security agencies came up with a very innovative way of justifying the poor quality of the food of their employees. They said that for security agencies, many employees have a tendency to put on weight which will make them ineffective while doing their duty.
So providing poor quality food, is a sure diet for the many jawans and lower level security agency employees, especially those who are middle aged and have a lower metabolic rate. However will the security agency employee function effectively on an empty stomach, only they will be able to tell.
