2,300 IIPM students get jobs
Indian students too should mend their ways if they want the attacks to stop, writes Mintu Brar from Brisbane
Attacks on Indian students in Australia are being condemned the world over and rightly so because it is a very serious matter. But no attempt has been made to get the crux of the matter: why are these racial attacks taking place?
Indians have been living in Australia for over a century and never have they been targeted before. What has gone wrong? Could Indian students be responsible for generating this anger? It is important to go into the causes. It is important to remember that behind every incident are mischievous elements who escape while innocents like students Upkar Singh or Sarwan Kumar become targets. Statistics tell us there are 90,000 Indian students in Australia for higher education and that is a sizable presence in a sparsely populated country. The truth is that most Indian students come here not just to study and return, but settle down.
Many students have succeeded in doing so through hard work and dedication. But since visa relaxations have come into place, there is an undesirable, minority element of about 5 per cent Indians who have come here and given a bad name to the remaining 95 per cent. I would like to recount a few incidents that I have been witness to and these will help understand the genesis of the anger of Australians. First is the experience of hooliganism by Indians, in particular Punjabi students, during the ground New Year Eve celebrations at Sydney. These celebrations draw tourists from all over the world. I attended the celebrations and was truly impressed by their immaculate arrangements and grand style. Although fireworks start only at midnight, people had assembled at the Harbour Bridge by 4 in the evening and there was only a narrow path for emergency exit. To my horror a loud noise was followed by a group of my young countrymen pushing their way through the crowds shouting slogans. This was followed by another group of Indians who come in beating drums and Hare Krishna, shoving and muscling their way through the crowd.
