Are there other code hosting platforms besides Github that are not based in the US or upon which US Government sanctions have little to no influence?

Aside from self-hosted/decentralized solution, Codeberg[1] which operated on Germany could work. I've no idea how they handle sanctions law though.

Back to India! SourceForge!

Link you mentioned also say SourceForge comply with U.S sanction list.

It is an open question though, how much bitcoin ecosystem is addicted to github, and what is the cure?

I'd say it's very dependent on GitHub. Aside from Bitcoin Core which have lots of mirror, i found almost all Bitcoin-related source code on GitHub.
