A 23-year-old Indian student was beaten up for the second time in a fortnight by a group of youths here, the 11th person from the community to be assaulted within a space of a month in Australia.

Three Indian students were attacked in Sydney and Adelaide last week in assaults that came days before Australia’s immigration minister left for Delhi today to reassure Indians they were safe.

After a brief lull in attacks on Indians in Australia, two students and their uncle were "brutally bashed" by a group of around 70 youth while playing here.

Despite Australia’s claims that the recent attacks on Indians are not racist in nature, figures revealed by Melbourne Police Chief Commissioner show crimes against Indians have risen considerably in the past two years.

In the backdrop of a spate of racial attacks on Indians, a helpline was on Wednesday set up in Melbourne by four Gurudwaras to provide all necessary assistance to students studying in Australia as well as their parents in India.
