Shaken by a wave of racial assaults, thousands of Indian students chanting ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ rallied in Melbourne on Sunday demanding justice for victims of recent attacks as Australia scrambled to contain the rising anger and frustration within the community. The ‘peace rally’ organised by bodies like the Federation of Indian Students in
Australia (FISA) and National Union of Students kicked off from outside the Royal Melbourne Hospital, where 25-year-old Shravan Kumar is in a critical condition after being stabbed with a screwdriver by a group of teens on previous Sunday.
