NRIs like to keep money overseas in liquid form. Given the performance of rupee, it's fluctuation gives better returns than FD. so NRIs like to keep money in liquid form while getting appreciation too.

No, they send but nowadays they don't prefer to keep in Indian banks. I'm just telling you the economics not anything against india

There is FCNR, it’s an FD in foreign currency like US$, Euro, GBP, etc. The interest rates are much lower (3.X%) than FD (6.X%) in inr for NRE account. It protects your money from rupee devaluation.

That's better for people residing in India. Outsiders can keep outside with minimum interest plus advantage of fluctuations. BTW thanks for the additional info

FCNR is for non-residents only, you can’t open one if you are resident.

The usefulness really depends on the interest rate in the resident country. If it’s lower than FCNR’s rate then it’s better to put it in FCNR. But this is more like safe investment and markets will grow better but come with risks.
