They are being used. They dislike Chinese presence in the Indian Ocean. But the French and UK maintains permanent bases in the Indian Ocean. The US will never let them establish hegemony in the Indian Ocean in the future either. India is being used as a pawn.
I do get the sense that this is not just about politics, where the right wing news media is almost creating a narrative justifying a war, even in spite of the fact that their own PM hopes to de-escalate. It appears, as you have described, that some of these positions are really sourced from the platform of the RSS, which are in turn derived almost ritually from their raison d'tre. This is a real ugly combination.
If China does not pull back from its current positions, Modi will have to navigate an incredibly thin rope to get out of this politically. It would be the same as if the Nazi party had ruled against Hitler, but instead the party was more militaristic and had ambitions for lebensraum greater than Hitler himself.

China could provide support for Indian Naxalites.
India wants to align with the US regardless of recent events. It wanted to even before Covid 19. Culturally, India wants to be just like the US. It looks up to western culture and society.
This British author claims that China has driven India towards the US with its aggression...
It's funny how the Anglo-American Empire and its allies are always the victims of aggression.
sigh... never let historical facts get in the way of a good argument

India was gonna go with US regardless, it was just a matter of when.
I suspect the cabal is planning conflicts in the SCS, India-China border, and Xinjiang. They wanted Russia onboard but Russia knew they would be fully surrounded if China loses.
Right now it’s just all propaganda priming of the people. US is just gathering up everyone that wants to see Chinese suffer: Korea, Japan, India, Vietnam. and some other trash.

It's doesn't matter. There are way more countries that want to see the US suffer.
As for India. India has already swallowed China's bait. India's participation in the so-called US Indo-Pacific Grand Strategy is only bad for China if Indian military restructures and prioritize naval forces. This is because India's only advantage over China is in the Indian Ocean. If India could safely and securely prioritize their navy development over other forces, she could harass China's merchant fleet in the Indian Ocean, which will deal the most effective damage to China (and most costly for China to directly counter-act). Therefore, if the Indians has strategic vision, it should de-escalate northern border confrontation as well as Indo-Pakistan confrontation, and focus resources on navy.
However, the situations along the Himalayas border is strategically tilted towards China. This is extremely effective containment and diversion strategy for China on India. China only needs to be a little aggressive, and it will prompt India to pour a lot of her national defense resources in the north, on land and in the air. This will drain Indian navy resources, curbing their growth, which renders Indo-pacific strategy meaningless, while also creating a lot of geopolitical-inducted business opportunities for the OBOR Project.
