The recent court verdict is a horrid reflection on the fundamental indecency of humanity. 7000 dead and 25 years later a verdict that is all but a fucking whitewash, thanks to Union Carbide, a US company.

That's good. Meanwhile let us not forget the people of Bhopal who are still waiting for justice.
