Simply because India would like to exert the same kind of control over Pakistan as Russia seeks to exert over Ukraine.
It must be said that Russia isn't the first country to do this.
Look at what China did and intends to do. The tightening of its control over Hong Kong and the threats it constantly poses to Taiwan are of a similar nature to the Russian interests in Ukraine.
Germany and Japan did similar things before World War II.
The naturally occurring evil of seeking to exercise ruthless control over those weaker than oneself is an age-old moral problem in human nature.
It is only through civility, constitutional law, democratic systems, and a global overwatch that individual nations can be restrained from going berserk in their neighbourhoods.
