For every 'a' element whose href attribute starts with one of those two
example strings,

  theLink.indexOf("http://www.google.co.in/")

will be !== 0 so the target attribute will be set to "_blank".  That is
what you say you want.  If it is not working, it is not working for some
reason I could not even guess at.

Have you read https://css-tricks.com/use-target_blank/ ?
