US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti on Friday emphasised that the country is safe for Indian students amid reports of violence against Indian nationals.
Garcetti highlighted that students studying abroad should familiarise themselves, have a network, trusted friends, and should know what to do if there is a dangerous situation, or if there is a mental health issue.
Garcetti said American universities are "extraordinary places" to come to and offer overwhelming experience to students.
Nearly half a dozen Indian and Indian-origin students have died in the US since January this year.
