This incident has little to do with the 787 itself. Most likely a maintenance issue that happens countless times all over the world. It's in the papers because of the trend of 787 stories.

The aircraft certainly isn't without it's (large) share of problems, but this story (original Indian news item) neither illuminates or explains.

While the JAL A350 order is still significant, bear in mind they have more 787s ordered than A350. The aircraft complement each other rather than directly compete.
