Who was the culprit? Whether to blame Government or Machinery? I will not answer these complicated questions. I will write for the people who are still paying for the mistake they never made. People of Bhopal who suffered and lost their families are sill waiting to get justice. Compensation can not bring back their family, cannot return them 25 years which otherwise might have been happy days not these tearful days waiting for the justice.
I would say that now we demand justice for the lost of families and 25 years that cannot be fulfilled by compensation. There should be several steps taken to ensure that people feel that their wounds have been cured. I suggest
1.One of each family member should be given a job in government companies or PSU as it is done for those who die at borders or terrorist attacks.
2.25 years earlier who want to be doctor or engineer was not not able to continue there education because their father dies and all responsibility came to his shoulders and was unable to finish off his education. So Government needs to pay for the education of their children as their father were not able to get that due to family responsibility.
I feel these measures will be better than compensation as you cannot compare the value of money today with 25 years earlier.
There should be several steps taken to ensure that it do not happen again.
1.No allotment of such plants near residential area.
2.Regular check of the machinery.
3.Strict checking of many layers before passing the parts to be used in the plant.
You must be thinking that why i am blaming the government when this incident was a mistake of the machine. Let me tell you that from one year before that tragedy night, many times the gas leaked and many workers were affected but neither the company nor the government took any step, and when it occurs they blame the company and rescue the owner out of Bhopal to save themselves.
In the end i will say that we don't want answers any more we want justice which definitely not the compensation
