Indian nationalists' belief in a nutshell: because we are Hindus and because the Vedic progenitors spread to distant lands, then those lands are also ours (the flaw here being that the distant lands were neither Hindu nor did original Hinduism originate in modern India).
Israelis employ the same logic: "our Israelite ancestors lived in distant lands, so those lands belong to us".
Zionist
Jews have been trying exceptionally hard in the past decades to transform Judaism, a religion, into an ethnicity. But they don't stop at calling themselves just a Jewish ethnic group (because the land of Judah was very small). Instead, they also call themselves
Israelite. Labeling themselves Israelite (or Children of Israel) gives them access to claim more vast foreign territories.
The original territory of Judah (where the word Judaism and Jew come from). Note how it is a separate entity from Israel. Keep in mind, this map depicts a time before the existence of Moses and the Torah. The religion here was not the Judaism that Jews today practice.

"Israel" is the honorific title of a figure named Jacob. According to the Hebrew Bible, Jacob was a Semite from this Levant area. But he moved and settled his family in Lower Egypt (the fertile area of Egypt where the Nile branches and meets the Mediterranean Sea). Many centuries later, under persecution from the Pharoahs, a descendant of Jacob named Moses led the Israelites back to the Levant (the Exodus). Proto Judaism (the religion) formed here with the Torah (The Law) given to Moses and the religion expanded with the later descendants of Moses such as David and Solomon (and the Laws given to them).
But because Jacob/Israelites lived in Egypt for centuries, modern Zionist Jews claim Egypt also as their ancestral homeland. It doesn't stop there because the Israelites also lived for centuries in Babylon (Iraq) as captives (this is where the Talmud was invented). Yet still, that isn't enough as they claim a homeland also in Hijaz (Medina Saudi Arabia), Yemen, most of Syria and Lebanon, Ethiopia, as well as portions of Turkey and east Africa.
You can see the pattern forming here. Indians do the same but with less skill. And it opens a door to perpetuate expansionism, as all you gotta do is invent a belief that a distant ancestor once lived here and there. Using this method, the Jews have found ancestral homes in places as far as Iran, Kazakhstan, and Afghanistan. Some recently even started perpetuating the idea that the Pashtun ethnic group of Afghanistan and Pakistan are Israelites.
