India is as far away as a nation can be from the NATO/US poking around Ukraine and Russia drama as a nation can be.
They probably see no reason to get involved at all.
By the way, we dump billions in cash and weapons on Pakistan. They might not think of us as someone to go out on a limb for.

An Indian officer related a story about how his dad was part of a medical unit that had lifted off for an attempt to take over Diego Garcia when they were recalled and the entire mission was canceled. This was under Indira Gandhi’s tenure around the time of the secession of East Pakistan (which became Bangladesh).

If I had to guess, Uncle Sam told them (as a consequence of knowledge derived through sigint and maybe humint) “we know you’re coming - please don’t do this”. Meaning the Indians would be arriving at the scene of a blanket party thrown specifically for them.
