There are no reports of Indian casualties so far in the Virginia Tech shooting, where 31 people were killed and as many injured, the president of the Indian Students Association said.
<b>"As of now, we haven't heard of any bad news about the Indian students. But the situation will be clear once the authorities release the list of the victims,"</b> Ajit Pal Singh Raina, the president of the Indian Student Association, told rediff.com over phone.
Raina said the communication was a problem as those students who are on campus aren't allowed to leave the university premises. "The situation is under control. We heard that whoever was responsible has been shot. But getting in touch with all the students is not possible just now.
"The only way information flows now is through our website. And thankfully, there hasn't been any bad news till now," Raina said. There are a lot of Indian students at the university.
