The White House has said it would be "absurd" to link the shooting of two Indian men in Kansas to Donald Trump's rhetoric on immigration.
Srinivas Kuchibhotla, aged 32, died following the shooting in a crowded Kansas City bar, while Alok Madasani, also 32, was injured. Ian Grillot, a 24-year-old American who jumped to the defence of the two men, was also shot.
Witnesses told police the shooter shouted "get out of my country" before opening fire in Olathe.
Officers have charged 51-year-old Adam Purinton with murder and attempted murder following the incident on Wednesday.
The shooting has sparked outrage in India and diplomats have been sent to the United States to monitor the investigation.
Jaganmohan Reddy, father of Mr Madasani, said he thought it was a hate crime and claimed such incidents have increased after the recent political changes in the United States.
Relatives of Mr Kuchibhotla, an engineer, gathered at his home in Hyderabad to mourn his death. One of them, Venu Madhav, said it appeared a mindset was being cultivated "to hate Asians and Middle East people".
