Point Blank with Neville Roach

Roach_Neville

Born in India, having spent a major part of his life in Australia, and having worked on building Indo-Australian ties both on the government and business level, We can think of no one better than Mr. Neville Roach to shed light on the current state of affairs between India and Australia. Here is well written bio of Neville. The latest and a significant addition to the already enviable bio is Neville's recent appointment to the Indian Prime Minister’s Global Advisory Council of Overseas Indians.

This podcast has a special significance given the recent attack on the Indian student community in Australia. Are they really racially motivated? Neville tells us what is really happening in Australia.

Neville: Liked the balanced and extremely well formed arguments put forth by you. Unfortunately, all News channels like extreme reaction and was expecting the same on Indicast but I was pleasantly surprised. However, I disagree with your views on sledging in cricket. I don't see why India, or other teams for that matter, should not retaliate sledging.

Over all, the podcast was quite timely and a good addition to the Point Blank series.

I can understand Neville's position especially during not so healthy times for the two countries. His role demands him to be diplomatic, but this conversation was objective and it was good to know that on certain issues Neville was opinionated - indian govt issuing a travel advisory, the next step to be taken by the Aus govt, etc

And nice to know he follows his cricket too!
