student beaten up

hi , 
It's really funny how time passes so quickly when you really like something and seems like an hour when you despise it !! that's because the previous week seems to have gone faster than light .. it seems like yesterday I published my last blog !! 

I've been wanting to write about the hostility that Indians and Australians face in any sphere of life.. from cricket to college . The controversy between Indian spinner harbhajan singh and Andrew symonds got the better of the headlines some time back   and now the beating up of an Indian student in a train in Australia . Sourabh Sharma had gone there to study hospitality was caught among thugs and was asked to kiss their shoe . This is outrageous . 
The Australian students say that they cannot put up with outsiders as they lack common civic sense ( the Indians , reportedly , block hallways and move along in huge groups ) now , what is wrong with that . how long is it going to take for them  to say '  excuse me, please move '? This cannot get any funny . Are they not able to brace the fact that some Indian students who go there do better than them ? Then why are  they there in a university ? if they can't take up this challenge what are they ever going to do when they graduate and move out ?? 
This disheartening situation only makes some of us rethink our motives of going abroad and studying . 
The ragging and teasing . is an 'integral part' of any university but beating students up is something that never gets me . It truly displays how uncultured , uncivilised and ill mannered they are . 

that's it today
bye
