In the early hours of 3rd December 1984, as the city of Bhopal slept,
a silent but deadly cloud of poisonous gasses descended upon an unsuspecting population of over 500,000 people.
The lives of countless families were changed forever.
This is the story of one such family.
IMPACT
in 2020, it is 36 years since the incident.
Warren Anderson, the Chairman and CEO of Union Carbide at the time, never plead guilty to homicide charges. He died at 92, in a nursing home in Florida.
Three decades later, people are still being born with disability and deformation due to genetic damage caused by exposure to MIC.
The company Dow Chemicals took over the plant, but refused to do any environmental clean up. It lies abandoned, toxic, and still pollutes the water and soil of Bhopal.
The Gas Tragedy is still killing people today.
