Attacks on foreign students in Karnataka

It is very sad that very few Indian intellectuals have uttered a single word of protest or condemnation with respect to the vicious and highly condemnable attacks on foreign students in Karnataka, India. The political motivation behind taking advantage of every condemnable incident within the nation has exposed the true nature of a section of Indian intellectuals who shed crocodile tears based on selective intolerance that suits their agenda.

It is also important to notice that Karnataka (where such incidents have been rampant) has been ruled by a specific political party that has been vocal about similar incidents in other states but silent when the incident occurred in their own backyard.
