Firstly, the fact remains that you have not repaid the loan. How do you wish to settle the dues? Please think about this seriously.

As for your queries-

1. UAE Banks can take any legal action against in India? - yes they can file a fresh case in India. However, if the loan agreement is subject to UAE law, then the case cannot be filed in India. But the bank can always file a criminal complaint against you in India if a cheating/ fraud case is made out against you.
2. Indian recovery agents can take Legal action in India? - No, the supreme court of India has issued strict guidelines against such agents. You can take legal action against them

3. Can UAE Banks can issue arrest warrant in India through Indian Embassy? - This may be possible. India and UAE have mutual assistance agreement. But it all depends on the facts of the case. You can always seek protection of court against extradition on unfair grounds.
4. How to handle these collection agents- Seek proper legal advice.

The bank's can always take recourse of legal means to recover their money if you have failed to repay it on time as per the agreement. The bank's cannot use coercive means to seek repayments. there is a procedure. If the bank is using muscle men then complain to the Local police. I would suggest you to mediate the issue with UAE bank through email and sort out.
