Anger over the death of an Indian graduate in Melbourne is growing, with protests outside the Australian High Commission in New Delhi.
The Australian High Commissioner has condemned the attacks, including the alleged murder of another Indian national in New South Wales, but warns against jumping to conclusions before police investigate.
Despite that, there are renewed travel warnings asking Indian citizens to take precautions while in Australia.
But the recent unrest has also been dismissed as the sole reason behind why student visas to Australia, have dropped by 46 per cent, in the past year.

Murder investigation
Today, an information caravan was set up in Melbourne's west, appealing for witnesses to the murder of Nitin Garg, 21.
He was stabbed in a park late Saturday night as he walked to his part-time job at Hungry Jack's in Yarraville. He died later in hospital.
A leading homicide squad detective says he will personally guarantee the safety of the person who fatally stabbed Mr Garg if he gives himself up.
Detective Inspector Bernie Edwards gave the commitment during today's appeal to the public for information.
Today was also the first day of random searches for weapons in Melbourne, as part of tough new laws to curb knife attacks.
NSW death
Meanwhile in New South Wales, investigations continue into the charred remains of 25 year old Ranjodh Singh, found in Griffith.
His family, in Punjab, want answers.
But the Australian High Commissioner to India, Peter Varghese, has warned people not to jump to conclusions.
He said, "I would caution against assuming that the discovery of a burnt body in Griffith in NSW, subsequently identified as an Indian national, is racially motivated murder. Here again, let us see what the police investigation concludes before we jump to conclusions."
