I suspect the double security is a function of airports built with different security regimes in mind than those which now are in place, and (possibly) local bureaucracies and/or labor agreements.
Flying from Boston to Venice we had to pass through security in both Boston and Rome (and Rome was the craziest rabbit-maze ever).
As for the sex-segregation in Bangalore, it may be that this is the easiest way of dealing with issues of gender in India's multicultural, multireligious culture (wherein some groups have taboos about strange men and women in close proximity). It may simply be less hassle for them to separate everyone.
