According to Wikipedia there are two different infection vectors: eating undercooked pig meat infected with tapeworm larvae, or eating food or drinking water contaminated with human shit containing tapeworm eggs. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to see how that might be an issue in India.
India does also farm some pigs, albeit far fewer than their population would suggest.
You can also get it from eating undercooked bear meat. Because the bears eat the pigs.
