I'm not sure I understand the outrage from India. If you look at their standards to receive a visa to work there: The applicant should be a highly skilled and/or qualified professional being engaged or appointed by a company or organization or industry or undertaking in India on contract or an employment basis at a senior level, skilled position such as technical expert, senior executive, or in a managerial position, etc. There should not be a qualified Indian available to do the job that the visa holder would be performing. The employee's salary must be in excess of U.S. $25,000 per year (seems small until you put it in perspective: $3,168 is the average household income in India.) Meaning it is almost 8x avg household income for a salary requirement in India. If you equate that to the us average household income of $51,939, the H1B should be at $402,000 here
