While everyone wants Warren Anderson to be sent back to India, what is equally important is to take these powerful politicians and bureaucrats to task. The nation cannot let them get away so easily. At the same time, it is important to include all those politicians who have been battling in the court for the multinational companies. Hence there is an urgent need for a political cleanup. Unless we clear the known and exposed toxic elements from politics, no amount of cleanup at Bhopal will ensure that such disasters do not happen in future. All political parties have to come clean on this. We as civil society should treat them as untouchables, vowing never to connect with them, a kind of a social boycott if nothing else works.
