Chandigarh - After Australia, there are now reports of racial attacks
on Indians in New Zealand. A 23-year-old student from Ludhiana was
reportedly attacked by a drunken youth this week.
Nitesh Khanna, a student of diploma in business studies at Auckland,
was attacked when he was on his way to work. The youth tried to rob
Nitesh of his car and even damaged it. Nitesh's calls to the police
for help went in vain.
The assailant chased Nitesh's vehicle till his workplace where his
employer came to his defence. Nitesh informed his family in Ludhiana
about the incident.
His father Rakesh Khanna says, "The incident is an offshoot of racial
attacks on Indian students in Australia over the past four-five
days."
The case is not an isolated one.
Sunil Sharma (name changed), doing hotel management course in
Auckland, says, "I am subjected to frequent incidents of
discrimination. But, I don't want to get any case registered.
Recently, a brick was hurled at me by some youths when I was
returning home".
"I know several other Indians facing the same situation. But, none of
them will come on record, fearing problems in their academic
careers," he says.
