Yes, or at least some of them. India, pop. 1.25 billion, has around nine hundred (900) diplomats total in its foreign service (that is, diplomats overseas and in the country combined), and it's in a bad neighborhood with two nuclear-armed neighbors who are either not particularly friendly (China) or downright hostile (Pakistan).
Compare with Singapore, pop. 5 million, which also has about 900 diplomats!
