Air India Grounds 125 Cabin Crew Deemed ‘Too Fat’

Would love to see a breakdown by gender of the crew members who are grounded. Is Air India really doing this for safety, or is this just a pretense, to jettison their fat/unattractive flight attendants for politically-correct cause?
Oh, just thought of this -- FUEL SAVINGS!

Air India will ground 125 of its 3,500 cabin crew members after they failed to reach an “adequate BMI,” according to an official. The announcement comes after 600 crew members were told to shape up over the course of a six-month probationary period last year.
The airline insisted to the BBC that the rules are a matter of safety, not appearances. The regulations, the airline claims, were put in place to ensure that cabin crew could function well in emergency situations.
