India is known for its solidarity in difficult times and particularly people from Mumbai stand different as witnessed after the attacks on Taj and other locations. The entire Mumbai led by famous Bollywood stars made an impression in the minds of people and such events brought the life in Mumbai fast back on track.

Now, as we see repeated news on attacks by different means on Indian students in Australia, it is time for people of India to come together to make a point against these atrocities.

While there are diplomatic aspects and rallies by Indian students in Australia, the first Indian personality to make a very specific point is none other than Amitabh Bachchan.

After awarding a honorary doctorate to Narayana Murthy, the Queensland University of Technology short listed Amitabh Bachchan for the second such award to an Indian. But, little the authorities would have expected that the incidence would churn out a controversy.

Amitabh Bachchan, wrote in his blog “I have been witnessing with great dismay and shock, the recent violent attacks on Indian students in Australia, on the electronic media the entire day. I mean no disrespect to the Institution that honours me, but under the present circumstances, where citizens of my own country are subjected to such acts of inhuman horror, my conscience does not permit me to accept this decoration from a country that perpetrates such dignity to my fellow countrymen”.

So, there is much of suspense to the programme that is scheduled to take place on July 30th at Brisbane.
