Dow owns all liability for Union Carbide-related law suits in US, but refuses to do so in India

by DEVINDER SHARMA

Nevertheless, The Times of India (July 3, 2010) has published an excellent analysis that exposes the double standard’s of Dow Chemicals. In the US, Dow is fighting 75,000 Union carbide-related suits and is expected to part with $ 839 million in coming years, while in India it has remained steadfast in denying any role for Bhopal clean up. This is only possible with support from the Government of India. I don’t blame Dow Chemicals as much as I blame my own government. They have failed the people of India.
