I think he meant bagpipes made in India. There isn't THAT much difference between different pipes, regionally. The most significant differences are in pumps versus lungs.
Pipes are very popular among Arabs, both in in the Levant and Egypt. Pipes were used traditionally until the end of the 18th century, when they nearly died out. British influence brought in the Scottish greatpipes, which are now an integral part of village weddings in Egypt. I remember going to Nazareth for the Christmas parade as a child and hearing the Arab pipe bands playing local tunes and Christmas songs. Later, when I was in the army, I heard an Arab practising one late at night, not far from the base.
Primitive pipes, often made from sheep bladders, are still in use among Kurds, or were, until just recently.
