You kinda answered your own question. The Israeli lobby remains a unique entity in US politics. No other nation commands that power. Also not all Jews support Israel.
As for howdy Modi, how many of those Indians were American citizens vs just green card or hb1 visa holders? And India hasn’t necessarily been very supportive of the overseas Indian community. There is still a pervasive attitude of seeing NRI as others and Indians who remain in India as true sons of the soil. The government only sees NRIs as a cash cow whether it is for FDI or gouching for visa fees. The relationship has to go both ways.
It also a testament to the poor foreign policy planning of India, who seem to think personal relations supercede national interests.

This is not at all the case with Indian Americans who, even if they have been in USA for decades, have to be careful not to unleash the racism that lies just below the surface in this society. As an example, see how Vivek Ramaswamy was attacked when he said that American children should focus more on academics if America is to do better. It’s no wonder that in this administration, Indian Americans are afraid to speak out. (Meanwhile, a recent report has said that American children continue to do badly in Math and Reading compared to other developed countries.).
So please do a bit of serious research before throwing out this “Indian Americans should do more for India” line.

The working class Indian Americans in USA are mostly apolitical. It is the business class Indian Americans who are political, but have no teeth. In fact these guys thrive because of working class Indian Americans. And they are less educated. Also these guys are too afraid to speak because if they do, they may be driven out of USA. So India cannot depend on these guys and must play the strong silent diplomacy.
Someday all indian origin people of America, citizens or non citizens will surely face backlash irrespective of their economic or political status. Probably companies will stop hiring indian origin people gradually. It is time for those indian Americans to come back and start their businesses in India.
