Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Tuesday that the right -wing opposition legislature should apologize for comments that indicate that the land is migrated by an unsustainable number of Indians.
Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, a Senator in the Central Liberal Party, said comments on one of the largest Australian minority groups after national protests against immigrants that partially accused Indians for the cost of living in the country.
Last week, the price used a radio interview to suggest that a large number of Indians were allowed to migrate to Australia to vote for the Albanian left -wing Labor Party.
“There is a fear with the Indian community – and only because there are big numbers. And we can see that it is reflected in the way the community votes for work at the same time,” Price said.
Her comments caused anger between the Australian Indian community, which led to the challenges of apology, namely the Iz of its own parties.
“People in the Indian community hurt,” Albanese told ABC on Tuesday.
“The comments are not true that the senator has made and of course she should apologize for the injuries caused, and her own colleagues say it.”
Government statistics show that 845,800 Indian people have lived in Australia in Australia, which is more than doubled in the previous decade. Hundreds of thousands of other births in Australia claim some form of Indian origin.
On Tuesday, the state government of the new South Wales organized a meeting of community groups to discuss what they say are growing an anti-Australian-Indian sentiment.
“Today, together with the Australian Indian community, we stand clearly to say that the kind of racist rhetoric and dividing the fake claims we have seen in the last few weeks does not have a place in our state or country,” said Prime Minister NSW Chris Minns.
The Indian Foreign Ministry said last week that after protests, it was involved in Canberry on the rise of an anti-index sentiment.
