I'm sure all of us remember about the firing that took place in the Virginia University in the US. A number if students including a lot of Indians were killed.

In Australia, an Indian student who was a part time taxi driver was shot by a passenger. Recently, in America a Sikh student's turban was set afire. What does all of this tell us? Why are mostly Indians the target of such incidents abroad? After some days of thinking, I think I've found the answer.

I think it is the lack of concern of the government that has led Indians to become such easy targets in the west. We are not bothered about the Indians, especially the Indian students who are study and work abroad. If we don't have any value for an Indian's life whether he is in the country or not, nobody will have that.

If we don't take an initiative to look into the safety of Indians students abroad then we can open the newspaper everyday to find more Indian students murdered. I am a 14-year-old girl who has plans to study abroad. Therefore I hope the government will understand the seriousness of the issue and act before it's too late.
