Thanks Yasmin. Your link led me to discover an online field guide to Indian dragonflies.

Looks like a Blue-eyed Darner. See http://imnh.isu.edu/digitalatlas/bio/ins....

Thanks for the link. It looks a little like an Aeshna Juncea but most of the dragonflies listed do not have photographs, so I am not sure.
