Krishna asks Indian students in Australia to show restraint

Concerned over reports of some Indian students in Australia retaliating in the wake of spate of attacks on them, Government today asked them to exercise restraint. "I would like to urge the Indian students to be patient and show restraint. They have gone there (Australia) for higher studies. They should concentrate on that rather than retaliate," External Affairs Minister S M Krishna told reporters outside Parliament House today. Asked about reports of Indians stranded in the Mansarovar lake area, Krishna said if the issue was brought to the notice of the Indian government it would take necessary steps.
