In a recent move, Union Law Minister M Veerappa Moily said that the government has decided to not intervene in the case against the Union Carbide corporation in a New York court. The victims of Bhopal disaster and activists have slammed the government’s decision, which comes despite Home Minister P Chidambaram’s (he also heads the Group of Ministers on Bhopal Disaster) assurance in the Parliament that nobody will be allowed to go scot-free. Noted social activist and lawyer Gopal Krishna has written a letter to Maneka Gandhi, who heads the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Government Assurances, to bring the issue to the notice of the committee and its members.
