Aarti Dhar Their letter to Prime Minister is the latest in global support for gas victims NEW DELHI: Sixteen U.S. Congresspersons, led by Frank Pallone Jr, have written to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh expressing support to Bhopal gas victims, and urged him to bring America-based Dow Chemical and Union Carbide to justice. Thousands of people died and were maimed as a result of massive release of methyl isocyanate gas from the Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal in December 1984. Union Carbide and Dow Chemical have since merged.
