Will Rs 1,500 Cr conceal the evil of Bhopal gas tragedy?
This EGoM report clearly proved that 89 years old Anderson is our guest of honor and India government has soft corner for USA. The two biggest industrial disasters- the 1984 Bhopal gas calamity and the recent (BP) oil spill have hit headlines.
RECOMMENDATION OF Rs 1500 crore compensation package for Bhopal gas victims by Empowered Group of Ministers is still a question mark. It is shameful! The question is what was our government doing in the last 26 years? Why should tax payers bear this entire extra burden? Why not rich politicians, who are ruling the country for so many years pay the whole amount along with Dow Chemicals? EGoM report is disappointing as it does not mention former Union carbide CEO Warren Anderson’s safe passage. Will this money heal the wounds? If it is not possible for India to extradite a 89 years old person and punish him taking into account the Indian political and judicial system, then atleast India should put pressure on the US based company to pay up dues without wasting additional time. If Indian government wants to redeem itself in public eye, it should take remedial action and bring to book the entire system and people responsible for Bhopal tragedy.
