Just search on the net about the background of Sunita Williams. Born in USA. Her father is from India, and mother from Solvenia. That makes her only half-indian.
She considers Massachusetts to be her hometown. Has visited to India maybe just once or twice in her entire life.
Where does "Indian Woman" come into picture ?
No need to feel proud for achievements by people of non-Indian origin but having a remote connection to India.
If this continues we will soon have news items which say "XYZ makes India proud. XYZ had his great-great-grandfather who lived under behind the banyan tree of ABC village in India. President of India gives a gold medal to XYZ for bringing pride to the nation."
