When I was last in Mumbai’s international airport, the only armed presence I observed was ONE uniformed (presumed to be ‘Army’) guard.

He carried an AK-47 with a clip in it and NO extra clips. The rifle was CHAINED to him via a metal hoop on his belt.

THAT was the only visible armed security in the entire terminal.

Bear in mind that in Mumbai, India you (used to) have NO fear of street crime. Beggars yes, assault no, theft no (aside from pick-pockets).

Sadly, India may up the number of guards to 4 or 5. Their culture is SO not about use of force.

“Their culture is SO not about use of force.”

And therefore extremely vulnerable to violence from a culture (Islamofascism) for which force and brutality are the imperatives.
