After their arrival, they may decide to visit Salford where Bidve was killed in an unprovoked attack on Boxing Day.
Lancaster University, where Bidve was enrolled on a postgraduate course in Microelectronics, has informed India's Consul in Birmingham, R R Swain, that it will refund the fees paid by Bidve.
Swain told PTI, "The steps taken by Lancaster University to refund Bidve's fees and to offer pastoral care for other Indian students who were with Bidve are welcome".
The Bidve family had reportedly raised a loan against their house in Pune to finance his study at Lancaster University.
