In what way does it not make sense? Signed languages are mostly natural languages that arise, often without regard for spoken language boundaries or national boundaries. You seem to be objecting to the idea that there could be more than one sign language in India, but alas languages and national boundaries often don't coincide. If there are over 20 official spoken languages in India, why should there not be multiple sign languages?
