I understand that remote is a problem. But I am settled in India and I do not have much options at the moment. Unless I decide to leave my family and go somewhere else for the job. That is something that is eating me...

Anecdotally, my last engineering manager (in a mid-sized North American company) was also from India. He was recruited by another Indian colleague in that company, who flew him over for a 3-month or so trial period I think. Once he was official, he was then able to move his entire family over and now they all live with him in Canada. Presumably he gets paid better than he did in India too, though costs of living are also higher here.
Just in case that's something you might be willing to consider? It would probably suck for your family to get uprooted like that though :(
