Forty years after the devastating Bhopal Gas Tragedy, a major step has been taken to address the hazardous legacy of the disaster. Hundreds of tonnes of toxic waste, left behind at the site, have been moved to a disposal facility in Madhya Pradesh's Pithampur for incineration. The 1984 tragedy, which claimed over 25,000 lives and left half a million suffering severe health issues, remains the world's deadliest industrial disaster. This exclusive ground report from the incineration facility sheds light on the intricate process of disposal, which is expected to take three to nine months, and the measures being implemented to ensure safety and accountability.

05:03the crops have been destroyed, the crops have been destroyed, the crops have been destroyed,
05:10I would like to thank Jaiyas, a tribal organization, and you can see that many of Jaiyas' friends are with me,
05:16brother Rakesh is with me, brother Saravanan is with me, I don't remember the names of many brothers,
05:20but I would like to thank Jaiyas' entire team, that such an organization,
05:25which has always fought for the society and the people of Pithampur,
05:31is with us today in this hunger strike, sitting on this Aam Aran Ensemble.
05:36We have come here to encourage the youth of Pithampur, we will talk to Ravi Chaudhary directly.
05:42We would like to know what Ravi thinks about this, the garbage that has come here has to be burnt.
05:46How dangerous can this be for Pithampur in the future?
05:49Ravi, I welcome you very much, this is my first question to you.
05:52How dangerous will this step be when the garbage will be burnt here,
05:55and we will be able to see a direct impact on the health of the garbage.
05:58Our souls tremble if we talk about this too.
06:01I believe that our future generations will do the work of spoiling both the crops,
06:05this will destroy the environment.
06:08So I want, and what I want is that the whole of Pithampur,
06:12now we are sitting here in a small number because we do not want the environment of Pithampur to be spoiled.
06:17But when the fire started there,
06:21then I believe that from the road to the Sadhan,
06:25there will be no place on the road, you will get so many trees.
06:30It is your impression that you continue to raise your voice against this,
06:33you reach out to the responsible people.
06:35Once again, the youth have gathered here to oppose you.
06:38What do you think, how far will this voice go this time?
06:41This voice will go to the Sadhan,
06:44and I believe that this is also being discussed in Nyalai,
06:47in Indore too, many ministers are taking meetings.
06:50I believe that this victory will definitely be of the people of Pithampur.
06:54And I assure you that all the youth here,
06:57all the youth activists are sitting with us in this campaign.
07:00I definitely want to say that we will win.
07:03Now the time has come to burn the garbage.
07:06There is very little time left.
07:08How far will this fight go?
07:10And what do you think, will the youth win this fight?
07:12Look, the youth will also win.
07:14We are sitting here at the Amran Foundation.
07:17If someone's life is lost,
07:19to save the whole of Pithampur,
07:21if the lives of 2-5-10 people are lost, then we accept it.
07:24Even if our lives are lost,
07:26we will not let it burn here.
07:29What message do you want to give to the government and Nyalai?
07:32I just want to give a message that these are the people who have chosen you.
07:36From the municipality to the MLA,
07:39Minister, MP, all of them are of the Bharatiya Janta Party.
07:42So my request to the Chief Minister is that
07:44you should discuss this issue in a special way.
07:47You should listen to this issue.
07:49When it was said in Gujarat that the garbage will burn there,
07:54the people there opposed it.
07:55The government there opposed it.
07:57So can't the Madhya Pradesh government openly oppose this?
08:00This government is ours.
08:01We have made it.
08:02We have chosen them.
08:03I believe that the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh,
08:06Mohan Yadav will listen to this.
08:09He will take it seriously.
08:10He will understand.
08:11And all the youth here, Pithampur will win.
08:14So you can definitely see that
08:16Ravi Choudhury, who is a youth leader, has come here to support the movement.
08:22And he clearly believes that if such garbage is burned here,
08:25then this movement will be given a bigger form in the future.
08:29And in the future, this movement will also be seen on a large scale.
