I'm not familiar with Indian law, but I am guessing that fraud is illegal there.

As I pointed out a couple of hours before your comment, there's certainly plenty of news articles about the Indian police arresting people for call center scams -- often in cooperation with international authorities -- search [india call center scam arrest]

I'm aware that they do. I'm suggesting that the answer to "why?" India might want to address the issue is because their own legal system also prohibits fraud, and is not simply a concession to foreign interests.

Ah. That meaning of your comment wasn't obvious to me at all.

True and USA has a gazillion ways to force other states to crack down on stuff that hurts USA. Fraud is illegal, but in a way, this is hurting USA and bringing money to India (see Mexico and drugs)
