  It’s just bad diets. 30 years ago, it would be a struggle to find overweight people in any village in India. Absolutely rare to see an overweight child. But during those decades, food became relatively cheap, especially carbs and sat fats, and Indian food is loaded with sugar/oil/cream/etc. It’s delicious, and do-able once in a while, especially if you have to sit around without air conditioning. But start eating all those sweets and fried foods every other day while sitting in air conditioned offices and cars, and no amount of exercise is going to help.
