"Australian Anti-Immigration Protests Specifically Target Indian Immigrants, Outnumbering Greek and Italian Immigration Over a Decade"

The far-right group "March for Australia" has announced a nationwide rally scheduled for August 7, with the event set to take place across Australia. The organiser, Ms. Walker, has promoted the rallies on social media.

The flyer for the event accuses political leaders of ignoring public opinion while continuing to describe the process as democracy. It also explicitly targets Indian migration as a cultural threat, claiming that more Indians have immigrated in the past five years than Greeks and Italians did in 100.

The "March for Australia" rally comes amid concerns about increased attacks against Indians in Australia and vandalism by Khalistani supporters. The group's online activity includes references to "remigration," a far-right concept advocating the mass deportation of non-European populations from Western countries.

Online activity connected to the group organising the rally has also included sharing pro-Nazi and pro-Hitler memes. The group has been associated with neo-Nazi elements advocating racist and nationalist ideologies, and their demonstrations have included violent incidents.

Authorities and advocacy groups are monitoring the situation closely due to concerns that the rally's rhetoric could escalate into hostility against migrant communities, particularly Indians. The Australian government has largely failed to address these issues.

An ABC investigation has been conducted on the matter, but further details are not provided in the given context. The reference to "remigration" was quietly deleted from the group's website shortly after its launch.

Police are expected to maintain a strong presence at the rallies to prevent unrest. The flyer also claims Australia is being exploited by "international finance." The organisers have called on supporters to act if political leaders fail to address the issue.

The organisers of the rally have urged their supporters to act if political leaders fail to address the issue. They claim that the majority of Australians believe migration levels are "too high," citing a Lowy Institute poll from June 2025.

In the past, the group's demonstrations have included violent incidents such as attacks on Indigenous protest camps in Melbourne. While some protesters may voice legitimate concerns like housing shortages and healthcare issues, the movement as a whole is strongly linked to racist, anti-immigration views and far-right extremism.

No information is provided about any disruptions caused by a Khalistani group during Indian Independence Day celebrations in Australia. Similar designs of the flyer have since been published across the official March for Australia social media pages.
