It is like that, not knowing about England, but in Austria, first, one
does not have street dogs, and I mean it, not a single one! Busses and
underground/trams/trains are assured with low step to climb, so a guide
dog can manage easily.
On top, communication with a dog, especially with a guide one on the road,
can turn into a big issue if anything happens and the dog was distracted
by someone else, which means, it is forbidden for children and/or grown
ups to communicate with a guide dog on the road, unless emergency
situations.
Not to mention, the hygeen level a dog requiers, especially if living
indoors is very very costly, by all means and I am sure this increases
still when it comes to a country with a summer climate like India.

Which of these problems are not faced by people using guide dogs in,
say, England?

They don't, right?
So, in the same way, guide dogs might not work as effectively in India
as they do in the US, but I don't think that is a good enough reason
for not getting a guide dog.
