"Racial attack on Indians in Australia are things of the past"

Bangalore, Dec 8:  The incidents of racial attacks on
Indians in Australia were thing of the past as many Indians
were feeling safe for now, former Australian captain Adam
Gilchrist said here today.
  "Which ever Indian I have spoken to, he has told me he is
feeling safe living in Australia. Nothing has happened in the
recent past," he told reporters at a promotional campaign
of Wollongong University, of which he is the brand ambassador.
  Gilchrist, however, condemned the racial attacks saying
that no Australian could be proud of racial attacks on
Indians. "No foreign students should be received in this
manner," he suggested.
  Gilchrist also said a very thin minority of the Australian
community indulged in racial attacks on Indians.
  He, however, said the environment at Wollongong
University was cordial and safe. "There were no such incidents
at the university campus," Gilchrist said.
