DH Headline "Bhopal's Second Disaster"

"Bhopal's Second Disaster", Deccan Herald's headline captured it all, you could not have read, heard anything better as a headline for the injustice that poured and tore the nation through poisonous gas leaked 25 years ago.

The difference between Kasab and Keshab is that, one is with the gun, the other is without, both killed. The tragedy at Bhopal is no less than a the Mumbai attack. It also represents the legal system that we have, where for mass murder, the punishment and the penalty is negligible.

Media coverage of the judgement and analysis is so poor that they seem all doctored and all of the print and broadcast media seem to have a agenda other than serving a cause. Hello TRP are you listening?

I recall a prayer and pray, oh God, "Let my country awake".

It may be a good time for Sonia Gandhi to make a statement and advice Manmohan Singh to take corrective action, all possible ways. The political will is what is needed to drive the system to adequate justice.It requires the courage to do that, only Sonia is in a position to demand and seek. Bhopal gas Disaster is a shame on the country compared to any other tragedy that struck ever to the nation. It also should be an example of how justice is done in India. Hold the values.
