My 2 Cents & I am ....

Remember Bhopal. Dec 3, 1984 is definitely a black letter day for India and the world. A day which would rank alongside Aug 6 and Aug 9, 1945 as the gravest days for mankind. 20 years have passed but justice is still found wanting. A recent study of people living around the disaster site indicates the breast milk fed by mothers to their kids has increased level of toxic chemicals, that have seeped into the groundwater in the affected area. So the legacy continues and will continue if the community doesn't come together in a big way and asks the Government to cut the crap and directs the architects of the disaster Dow Chemical Company ( Union Carbide was bought by DOW) take the crap out of Bhopal. So folks, if you are studying in an US university, plan activites around the 20th anniversary to make the community( not only Indian) aware of the event and step up the offensive on the perpertrators. Even if you are out of school, you can always take part in Bhopal related awareness activites as most communities will have something planned around that time. Everyone especially students need to stand up for Bhopal and stick it up to delinquent corporates, if the tragedy of a similar sort shouldn't happen again. It is a pity that U.S isn't preemptive in these matters.
