NEW DELHI: Sparks flew and pandemonium prevailed in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday with UPA and Opposition members clashing on who was responsible for the plight of the Bhopal gas tragedy victims and who helped the former chairman of Union Carbide Corporation (UCC), Warren Anderson, to escape to the United States.

THE Centre on Wednesday rejected the Opposition

Union home minister P. Chidambaram has said that charges against the absconding former head of the Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) Warren Anderson were not diluted and even lauded the CBI for being steadfast in its endeavour to seek his extradition. He also said that the curative petition in the case is almost ready to be filed.
