[rti4empowerment] Planning a feature film on Bhopal gas tragedy- need ur help

 

 
A Feature Film on Bhopal Gas Tragedy being planned

Every one of us knows what Bhopal gas tragedy stands for. It is the biggest human and industrial disaster. It is for long now that the matter has kept pending and it does not seem to come to any conclusion soon. About the misery, the pain and the pathos of the sufferers of this disaste...r, we don't have enough words.

It is because of these reasons that we are planning to make a full-scale feature film on this Bhopal gas tragedy. It is a big project but we have started our initial work. The purpose of this film would be to bring the true story. It certainly is going to be a very big project, in case we are able to actually get it materialized. The possibility of not being able to get it done will always be there because of it being a completely new field for us, the huge expenditure and risk involved, its great complexity and our inexperience but we hope to put in everything we have to get it realized and to do it very well by doing full justice with the topic.

What we really intend to do is to understand the entire matter and to bring forth the reality among the plethora of facts and fiction. There must have been many important people who played important roles in Bhopal gas tragedy. They shall be from government, social service, legal field, corporate world etc. We are trying to understand who all have been the main characters in the Bhopal gas tragedy so far, right from beginning till today.

The feature film on Bhopal gas tragedy that we are planning is not going to be an easy one. There are layers and layers of truth that we need to find out before arriving at conclusions. There are many issues that we are all aware. The so-called perpetrators of crime in Bhopal did not even go to jail even for One week. Isn't it ironical? Again, commenting directly and adversely on Supreme Court decisions is considered contempt of court, but in many of the Bhopal decisions one starts feeling like openly criticizing their decision.

For instance, about Bhopal gas tragedy, the Union Carbide said it was an act of sabotage. Here is a link to this-
http://www.nytimes.com/1987/06/23/world/theory-of-bhopal-sabotage-is-offered.html
A group of people refuted the sabotage theory in Bhopal gas case. Here is the link- http://bhopal.net/the-sabotage-theory/

Thus other than monetary constraints that we actually have, it will also need a lot of research as well. But we will try not only to delve deep into the matter but also to bring out the facts and to present them in a manner that really makes sense and helps common people to understand the realities of this case.

For this we need a large number of help from friends like u. To begin with, we would like to know-
1. Who were the important people who played important roles (for good or for bad) in Bhopal gas tragedy, either from government, social service, legal field, corporate world etc.
2. Who, in ur opinion, are the people who really worked for the welfare of Bhopal gas disaster affected people?
3. Who r the people u regard as the main villains of the Bhopal gas disaster?
4. Kindly Suggest some books that tell the real story of Bhopal gas tragedy
5. Kindly Suggest some really authoritative and truthful book/ source material on the entire Bhopal gas tragedy

Though Internet sources are giving us some early leads but it needs a lot more to do real justice with this complex matter. Waiting for ur help and support in a matter that has environmental, political, social, commercial, legal, medical and other ramifications at the same time.
