I don't know what's happening in India. I heard they blocked VLC & all VPN, some time back. Now they have blocked Protonmail.
Just the world's biggest election between a popular, incumbent president associated with the color orange and religious nationalism, versus a disorganized opposition. And fake news is a problem.
Just FYI, in India the president (head of the state) is more or less a ceremonial figure. It's the prime minister (head of the government) that you're probably talking about.
When I read VLC I thought it was a typo. Then I searched for it. Couldn't find any official reason, is it known it or only speculated?
Probably trolls being trolls or just the usual things governments like to do: ban anything and everything they don't understand or like.
