No AppleCare number for India?

I bought an iPad 2 from the US recently and have realized that it has backlight bleeding. This is a common problem with iPad 2s and a casual search on the Internet will return so many user complaints.

Now back in India, I'm trying to contact AppleCare to report this issue. To my utter surprise, I've realized that all the call center numbers for India communicated on the Apple website seem to be non-operational. When I call these numbers, a prerecorded message tells me that that call center is now closed. I've been trying these numbers for over a week now without any progress. What's worse is that I have not even been able to find an email ID where I could report my problem and obtain a case number.

Is this how Apple treats one of the largest economies of the world?

I'm hoping some Apple employee will read this message and advise me as to how I should contact Apple support in India.
