Survivors of the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy and victims of the resultant water contamination staged a torchlight march today to mark 26th anniversary of one of the world's worst industrial disaster. The victims walked from Bhopal Talkies to the Union Carbide India's old killer factory at Bhopal. The marchers demanded legal action against the Bhopal factory's parent company Union Carbide Corporation (UCC), its former chairman Warren Anderson and UCC's Hong Kong subsidiary. The march was organised by five Bhopal-based organisations and at end of the rally marchers, including a large number of children, gathered around a statue in front of the abandoned factory to pay homage to the victims.
