DHAR:
On the intervening night of December 2-3, 1984, highly toxic methyl isocyanate gas leaked from the Union Carbide pesticide factory in Bhopal, killing at least 5,479 persons and leaving thousands with serious health problems and long-term disabilities.
Protests have been held in Pithampur, a prominent industrial belt some 50 kilometers from the Dhar district headquarters, ever since 337 tonnes of hazardous waste from the defunct Union Carbide company arrived for disposal at a unit here.
