Union Minister Jitendra Singh today said that government is committed to taking care of the safety of African students in the country.

"I don't think I have to add anything to what has been said by the Minister for External Affairs and Home Minister.

"It is the responsibility of the government to take care of all these students and which the government I am sure is committed to do," Singh told reporters at a function here.

Singh was replying to a question about the African students being targeted in New Delhi.

A 23-year-old Congolese national was allegedly beaten to death by a group of men in south Delhi.
 

The incident took place around 11.45 pm on Friday when the man, M T Olivia, had a heated argument with a group of three persons at Kishangadh locality in Vasant Kunj.
