A delegation of top Australian officials and academicians will be arriving here next month to promote Australia as a safe destination. The delegation, comprising vice-chancellors of prominent Australian universities, will also explain the steps taken by their government to stop attacks on the migrants.

“An Australian delegation is coming here to explain to us about the measures they have taken to ensure safety and security of the Indian students,” Minister for Overseas Indian Affairs Vayalar Ravi told PTI in an interview.

Apart from meeting government officials in New Delhi, the high-level delegation will also visit various states, such as Maharashtra, Karnataka and Kerala, to apprise them of the steps taken by the Australian authorities to contain the attacks, the minister said.

The delegation will try to allay apprehension of the people who are concerned over sending their children to study in Australia.
