US envoy assures fair treatment to Indian students

As the Tri-Valley University issue continues to generate heat over shabby treatment of Indian students, US ambassador to India Timothy Roemer on Wednesday assured "fair and appropriate" handling of Indian students of the `sham'  university. Roemer also affirmed US commitment to welcoming Indian and other foreign students and helping them make "best" educational choices.

"We are working closely with the Indian government on the issue of Tri-Valley University and ensuring fair and appropriate treatment of Indian students. Moreover, there are many resources publicly available to help students educate themselves on the dangers of predatory visa fraud rings and to protect them from committing visa fraud," Roemer said, adding that visa fraud had universally harmful effects, whether it was committed by Americans or Indians, and could diminish opportunities for other aspiring students.

"It is wrong to fraudulently exploit the hopes and dreams of young students for financial gain and it is important that all prospective students take advantage of the free resources offered to them by the embassy and fully research the academic options available to them," he said.

The remarks came close on the heels of foreign minister S M Krishna taking up the issue with US secretary of state Hillary Clinton, who assured India of solving the issue.

Noting that the US was very proud to host more than 100,000 Indian students, Roemer said they were an important and contributing part of the American academic community.
