Are Pakistani nationals restricted to entering India through four airports only?

This has all the hallmarks of some jobsworth throwing his weight around. The existence of such a “regulation” is very unlikely if only because “through one of the four major airports” excludes the land crossing at Attari (Wagah). This form mentions that (though clearly is ancient!) but there are many more recent references to it also.

Silence is hardly conclusive but the details here are generally comprehensive and seem very likely to have mentioned such an arbitrary rule, were there one.

The issue may be the initially-chosen (smaller) airport. Not all Indian airports are manned with Immigration officers (for example, at T1, not even New Delhi) and it does make sense to me that Pakistani nationals are required to arrive in India via a point of entry that does have Immigration facilities (which the “select four” do have).
