I am a Bhopali

[bohemebelle]

I was 8 mths old when the Bhopal gas tragedy took place. Born and brought up in a city far away from the gas tragedy. So far away that I could grow up not knowing anything about union carbide or Bhopal other than the Raghu Rai image of a small child , with eyes that had turned milky. I probably didn’t understand what had happened , but that image

I was 3 when Union Carbide happened. My family was upset coz my mom had some relatives in Bhopal. Don't think I understood the magnitude of the problem until much later, in FY BSc. In our FC class a group had presented something on it. Then we saw that documentary at Leningrad Chowk. Makes me wonder if there can be economic measures with which these things can be controlled.
