India Relations with Palestine and Israel

How does India view the conflict between Israel and Palestine? Please add your thoughts here.
Based on my research, it wasn't until 1992 that Indian Prime Minister Narashimha Rao established formal relationships with Israel. Since 1947, when Israel was first hashed up, India's then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru viewed Israel as a racist society and condemned the Israel's atrocities against the palestinians.
A couple of days ago at work, I was chatting up with Indian co-workers and the topic of Israel and Palestine came up serendipitously as we were talking about Asian countries and the middle east. I tacitly espoused my pro-palestinian views and they all seemed to accept my views. I don't know if this is all in my head, but I just feel like they have been treating me nicer since that conversation a couple of days ago. Like they're just friendlier towards me. I don't know, may be it's all in my head. I was just curious to learn more about how India views this conflict and I look forward to learning more.
