gary trust was founded in 2006 by 2 survivors of the world's worst industrial disaster rashida b is one of them a little us allow or sell everything ok. tell. me. that. yeah well you never got it right because i had although i still see the impact of union carbide spurs in after 35 years and it's actually growing worse that we're burning the babies who were born right afterwards and now adults and these are their children so they're the 2nd and 3rd generations of disabled children we're still seeing the effects but the government's doing nothing. the disabilities are the result of hours long exposure to the toxic gas metal our society which escaped

from the plant in 1904 and by decades of using water contaminated by chemical waste abandoned at the site. now wave your hands. actually the part of this it is armed with that there is nobody goes to work with these 2 rooms because they are not giving money to them and we are wanting that he'd given them that if we would see of cause and they are getting help from us my . physical disability or. reading about men you know doing this it is like. old rule made that's clear from the. room or this isn't. b.s. that this. 13 year old to she is paralyzed on one side of her body her mother who was born in 1903 shortly before the catastrophe really leaves her side.

move forward a little. come put your foot down in front. of. you don't be scared don't be scared. now on your own go take a step. you don't. live when coming here since she was 2 and a half before she couldn't talk or walk or sit her neck had no strength since i've been bringing her here she started to walk she can stand make steps and she can talk she's really progress to a lot. of the 2 women who founded she garri rashid to be a muslim and champion hindu would like to offer more places to more children for 35

years they have 4 to help victims of the bhopal disaster. going on we have been together from the beginning since the gas tragedy we both got jobs at the central government press and since then we have been together the same but may have fought together and we got no work together and with that we started the ching gary trust . is up and i think. in 2004 they received the goldman environmental prize often called the green nobel prize and used 125000 dollars prize money to open the rehabilitation center since then it has mainly been financed by the bloke. medical appeal of british charity. it has been a life of suffering for many of the victims' families since december the 3984. my family my father got cancer and died 2 years later my sister in law got tongue

cancer and died and her 3 daughters died 21 from a brain tumor and one from a stomach tumor all 3 daughters died and even her husband 9 people from my family diet some people survived that night unfortunately the ones who died that night were lucky i was there survived are dying slowly even today. we. never got a. basis and the ambassadors say went blank and behind. the making of mice in. total around sure one was an engineer in the plant that made metal isis cyanide or m i c a component of the pesticide 7 luckily for him he was not there in the night in

december 1 1009 $141.00 of the mit tanks exploded the toxic gas leaked from the plant for hours the building still stands but nature has reclaimed the derelict $25.00 test site. after closing this plant could be 5 years it's not a single case you have to. learn so i was real close i got a violin and got a bite out it i thought about that. it's the same story in. the former quality control lab no decontamination took place. missed a show and worked in the plant for 9 years he says he knew it was a ticking time bomb.

and then. such a whose lead to. union county was already burying toxic waste around the factory site before the disaster thousands of tons of it still leeching into the groundwater. manually and. then. just in plastic foil put in place more than 35 years ago is presumably completely

poorest now. because. thousands of people live nearby day other victims of what could be called the 2nd disaster the contaminated water that has been poisoning them for 35 years since the gas tragedy. in 2004 the indian supreme court ordered the city to provide residents with drinking water since then a few neighborhoods have been connected to. the water network but the pipes are often leaky and sewage mingles with the clean mortar. to children is a nurse from the some above new clinic every week she pays a visit to her patient indra. the way. that the tap i fill my water from i used to have to go further and fill it over there but now i have it

here and it's. been fine. but since the taps are only on for an hour a day people here store water for the rest of the day in the open air. people here drink contaminated water for a long time clean water from the modern river has only been available for 80 years now before that people drank contaminated water from bore wells or hand pumps it affected their internal organs and many of them also have skin diseases. that is probably the cause of the source on interests hands. according to studies by the indian institute of toxicology research the contamination of the groundwater in bhopal is spreading in 201842 neighborhoods here were affected a year later it was 6 more.

at the heart of this area is the some clinic it opened here to be as close as possible to the disaster affected victims. maybe your blood pressure taken by the man over there then you can go are you going to challenge your mom should allie please work. there while 1st shake the body. 2nd breathe out. 3rd lift up your chin so it will run right down into your throat yeah. well done so remember the 5 steps shake it breathe out lift your chin up so it

goes down. press the button close your mouth that's all there is to it it's. set in our sarangi also known as such it is not a doctor but his door is always open to patients in need of comfort or advice. sachi is the founder and administrator of this treatment center. so this is it is friction it every day between 150 to 200 people come and they come to see different doctors or more medicine and the unique thing about this is we have a computerized medical information system we have in one place we can have information medical information on more than 35000 people as it happens there is no other such data in all of. 35000 victims of toxic gases in contaminated

water such you open the sump in 1906 with the help of the both medical appeal charity some power means possibility that she was convinced it would be possible to give these people treatment and ease their suffering we decided that we would integrate modern medicine with. your go so that this was may need to cut down on people over medication along with this we also included areas that have been neglected by the government like community has such as research. into has come for a consultation about the painful skin condition on her hands. the old man had this for 2 and a half months. i don't know if it's because of the water but when i put my hands in

the water it burns. down and the. interesting and i was there dick medical practitioner dr rupa body examines 40 patients every day she says that in 20 to 30 percent of cases the water is the cause of the disorders. surely when it started my work it was like i used to see more of the games but gradually in the last 5 to 6 years. are the number of. contaminated water victims has also increased actually the main. thing only the treatment in some manner was to use the dogs ignored these . victims who were exposed to chronicle exposed to chemical toxins so using naturally. i'd be the girl formulations. indra least with a prescription for good. a plant used in traditional medicine against autoimmune

diseases and allergies one of the 6 talk to treat patients here every day is a gynecologist most of the patients who come to the subcabinet clinic are women. well you know what's the problem with. my period has lasted for a really long time. pro long term menstrual period how long have you been having heavy bleeding 25 days maybe it's. all a health issue is that they were a baby or b. they may be very pale incidences are very much in this in this gas we've been beach and then did i do that normally at these days when we do that a good scan at 15 when we face so many formations and. have normal babies and i mean as b.b.'s in gas we've been patients specially in a wood giving if a fire then patients in but maybe faine that is but here in the gas victims they're

more. out of than 3 might have anomalous because they did it with the mild form. of a doctor has also noted that many of the women here go through menopause before they are 35 many were born soon after the bhopal disaster. the. gas affected people are being treated as if they are not needed you know as if. expendable. and one of the reasons we think is because of the if of who they are because half of them are muslims 49 percent of the gas affected people are muslims who in today's india are 2nd grade great citizens if not worse and the

other half among the hindus more than 80 percent. to belong to low cost. the north of book is a historic place until indian independence in 1947 the city was the seat of a muslim didn't rule the princely state of ballpark a number of ruins still standing but since $984.00 bhopal has been synonymous with the world's worst industrial disaster and yet it seems to be forgotten a few visitors come to the remembered ball park museum set up by survivors such you came to both partially after the disaster in 1904 he was studying nearby and wanted to help out and i saw just people lay in that you have in that picture of people in small hard to just crying i mean pain and dia's running down and more stuff what i saw was helplessness because nobody knew what to do nobody knew if there was

anything that would lessen the pain i remember for the 1st 34 nights the sky remain the red because so many bodies were getting cremated the official death toll was more than 5000 other sources say 25000 a total of 574000 people were exposed to the toxic fumes. this is warren anderson. 72 here along with them their managers approved the hazardous design for the book plant knowing fully well their it was going to be an suv. the former c.e.o. of the union carbide corporation died in 2014 he was charged with culpable homicide in india but never face trial but the bhopal group for information and action

continues to fight for justice for the victims the legal battles continue on the issue of appropriate compensation on the cleanup of the site and also the criminal cases against the accused are british and an individuals responsible for the disaster. it is in fact ashamed that after so many years later the corporations responsible for the disaster are still investing and profiting. in this country as well as all over the ward. a number of public hospitals will build especially to treat the victims. one was built by the indian central government 6 by the state of match a project an average of 4000 people get treatment here every day there are 634 beds for them these are normal lines at the private sector jobs are hollow narrow

hospital at the state department of bhopal gas tragedy relief and rehabilitation we meet justice v. k. aguilar who heads a committee that oversees the hospitals. then why would this be a good woman if you are in government. nothing is enough. and nothing in the world is enough. and being all sorts of complaints being treatment of patients. in the summer is in on the part of the host could be. not an intern but the people are bracing. for many vacancies because of course but do they get another problem the meeting with these gates. says the retired judge the large number of patients is proof that the system is

working. rationally disagree the activist says the government health system for the victims is an empty shell. you just have to look at the reports that just as agarwal and his team the monitoring committee that has been appointed by the supreme court of india have to look at the reports of the last 10 years and every report will tell you how bad the hospitals are functioning that there are bad quality of medicines that they are nor specialists that 80 percent of all staff specialists are still vacant that is it equipment but there is no trained staff to run back to equipment there's no treatment protocol. they have no medical files and no electronic medical data despite the millions in investments the health equal parts residents continues to suffer and then there are the victims of the contaminated water they are thought

to number more than 100000. the somebody in the clinic has been able to offset some of the deficiencies of the government's health system its philosophy methods and location make it unique in bhopal. it's a remarkable green haven. less than a kilometer away from the union carbide plant. the environment here is not intact especially the soil but still the clinic does its best to cultivate medicinal plants for patients. we are growing. which is very good for infections for lung conditions then we are growing by a lot here we have a lot of these flowers because this is good for many gynecological problems as well as people with any media as well as people with skin issues. around

100 different plants are grown here and used to hopeful infusions of applications for the skin but most of them a process to make oils or powders around 85 medicinal products are made here. this is new gandhi oil. i was packing that just now we feel the oil and packet. picking. it's a pain relief for oil so instead of taking medicine with this oil and you get relief. and this part of liquid is a remedy for coughs all of the products are prescribed free of charge at the clinic . this pharmacy stocks allopatric and i you beric medicine it's where the patients come to pick up their medications dollars are collected by the some trust indicates that even after more than 3 decades residence around the planet or twice as likely

to die from cancer and lung disease and 3 times as likely to die from kidney disease as people elsewhere 150000 residents suffer from chronic diseases both passed 2nd disaster continues on one side you have the poorest people in the city. on the other 30 you have be one of the most powerful corporations in the world and that has the support of the most powerful nation. it has the support of the us government the me what is happening continuing to happen in india in bhopal today the poisoning of the law and then the suffering of the people and we are all happening because the the corporation has been able to get away with it what is happening in bhopal is going to happen everywhere and slow and silent but bulbs are happening everywhere whether we like it or not there is

a continuous trespass of corporations poisons in our bodies and in our environment so. at the some pop in a clinic yoga is used as a healing method for body and mind alongside medical methods to reduce the amount of medications patients take. and to help them improve their daily lives by finding a balance and strength to keep hope alive.
