Why is Bhopal a human rights issue today?
Shortly before midnight on 2 December 1984, tonnes of deadly chemicals leaked from Union Carbide’s pesticide plant in Bhopal, central India.
Today, over 150,000 people are still too sick to work because of the exposure to toxic waste dumped into the water supply.
Dow Chemicals and their subsidiary Union Carbide refuse to face the law in India or to accept responsibility for the gas leak and the ongoing contamination. Union Carbide, fully owned by Dow Chemicals has been charged with culpable homicide in India.
Bhopal is not just a human rights tragedy from the last century. It is a human rights travesty today because the people have never claimed claim their rights to justice and accountability.
