Australians eat tandoori chicken to protest attack on Indians
|
Thousands of Australians, including Victorian Premier John Brumby, on Wednesday treated themselves to Indian cuisine like naan and tandoori chicken as they joined a mass dining event to protest attacks against Indians.
Brumby joined a few leading Indian community members like Primus Telecom chief Ravi Bhatia for lunch at Indian restaurant 'Desi Dhaba' in the up-market Flinders street. The mass dining is part of the Vindaloo Against Violence' campaign launched as a reaction to a spate of attacks against Indians across the city.
Brumby said the response from Victorians to the initiative demonstrated the community's commitment to express its solidarity with Indians and celebrate multiculturalism.
"The 'Vindaloo against Violence' initiative is an unique opportunity for Victorians to unite and send a message that the actions of an ignorant few will not be allowed to undermine the reputation of Melbourne as a peaceful and friendly city," he said
