On the night of december 2-3, 1984, a tragedy happened in which many people died and many got injured. This tragedy is known as 'Bhopal gas tragedy'. Leakage of methyl isocynate in the plant of 'United carbide India ltd', became one of world's worst industrial disaster.
After the trial which ran for almost 26 turbulent years, court made the charges under various section of IPC and diluted the charges "from culpable homicide to death by neglegence" followed by declaring sentence of 2 years and, subsequently granted bail to all accused. These accused are none other than bigwigs of corporate viz. Mr. keshub mahindra and others. Besides this, Warren Anderson, chairman of United carbide group has been absconding since the trial began.
If our judiciary system is so biassed towards the rich, then, it's nothing more than the sense of betrayal and forebonding to all of us. There are attempts made in every such case to veil over the heimous crime made by the rich & powerful persons. If such attempts would be made, then where will the common Indian will look for justice..
