The response comes in the wake of a letter written by the Civil Liberties Monitoring Committee India which sought to know what measures had been taken to ensure the safety of Indian students in Australia.
The response further states that a hotline has been established to assist Indian students studying in Australia.
The hotline is staffed with people fluent in Hindi and English and through this students can raise concerns anonymously.
Further, the Australian government has also announced a round table which will allow international student groups to speak directly with the government.
The response also states that the Prime Minister of Australia has outlined measures to ensure the safety of Indians and the response by the government is being managed by a taskforce headed by the National Security Advisor.
The response also quotes the statement of the Australian Prime Minister in which he said that Indian students are welcome guests in the country.
"The Australians of Indian descent who are over 20,0000 in number, are members of the Australian family. The Indian community in Australia have a long history of remarkable contribution to our nation and we deplore these attacks," the response stated.
