Hello everyone here Ji,
We remember , some time back what happened to Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh and his
counterpart then, blaming for racial problem. Now Harbhajan Singh is far away, but why
there is a problem. Below is total story :

[b]"Indian students take out peace rally in Australia against racist attacks
Melbourne, May 31 (ANI): Hundreds of Indian students in Australia have embarked on a
peace rally aimed at curbing racist violence. The march comes in response to a recent
spate of violent attacks on Indian students.
More than 300 protesters left the Royal Melbourne Hospital on Sunday afternoon. They
will march to Parliament house.
The Federation of Indian Students in conjunction with Melbourne University's Graduate
Student Association has organised the rally.
Graduate Student Association president Paul Coats called on the Australian Government
to immediately implement policy aimed at curbing a growing culture of racial
intolerance.
"I am opposed to calls for more police, as it appears that the police have been part
of the problem... they blame Indian students for making themselves targets," The
Herald Sun quoted Coats, as saying.
"Rather than blaming the climate of racism in Australia and racist governments that
exploit Indian international students through the commodification of education," he
said.
Australia has recently seen a series of attacks against Indian students, the most
serious being the assault of Shravan Kumar, a 25-year-old student from Andhra Pradesh
who is battling for life in a hospital after being stabbed by a screwdriver by a group
of teens in a weekend attack that also left three of his friends injured.
On Sunday night, hospitality graduate Rajesh Kumar received 30 percent burns after a
petrol bomb was flung into his home in Sydney that he shared with other Indians.
Yadu Singh, a cardiologist and community leader in Sydney, said there have been at
least 20 incidents of "curry bashing" in his city in the past month but most attacks
on Indian students went unreported out of fear. (ANI)"[/b]
Please do share your frank views.
May god bless YOu and have graet time.

the aus. govt. is taking it lightly but 75% of the educational revenue is earned from the Indian Students.These incidents will lead to no Indian students going for study to australia and in this economic crisis australia will definately suffer this.

So you mean to say that you will kill a guy simply because he's rude.Second thing is Indians are known for their good behavior with all types of persons and especially in other countries.
Saying that rude behavior of Indians is the main cause for all this current issues happening in Australia is just simply disgusting.
Lastly I agree not all the people are good in both sides but isn't it really awfull when a single Indian student is beaten up by 10 or more people in Australia ,no one cares to help them.

[b]Hello my friend torridleo Ji ,
and hiccup Ji [/b],
I think Indian's hospitability/acceptness/patience is famous World-wide. If any one is
rude, then why other should be rude. Land laws will take care. Lord Budha comes from India
Great Mahtama Gandhi comes from India, how could some one say so taht Indians are rude.
Indiand will try and tolerate till it does not spill out. Example is just here, after
those incidents, no body has been targetted in India. let's solve the problem. Every
one should try and restrain instead blaming each other. Culprits should be booked.
State should take prompt action. This is neead of hour.
May god bless You and have a great time.

Almost always, when racism runs rampant, the govt. and police officials are indeed part of the problem. Sad but true. There is no excuse for racism, and especially no excuse for violence inconnection with it. We are all people, no one sector better than another. It usually takes the uniting of "people" to help prevent the violence when govt. and police will not. God bless and help these Indian students.
