#3 This is tea and sympathy, to get the Muslim vote.
Indian elections are due in a few months.

Meanwhile relations with Israel, intelligence sharing, arms sales (in the billions), cooperation in missile development etc continues.

The Paleos still get the chai and soothing words though...

#6 India just wants Israel to slow down so they can get some observers in there and note how it is done.

Demanding cease-fires is common in international rhetoric. It all depends upon how virulant your demands are. Eventually the demands will get louder and more serious and Israel should have planned ahead of time for that so as to sustain their actions despite the demands or to complete what they need to fast and furiously so they have options when the time comes.
