The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected the Centre's curative petition seeking additional compensation from Union Carbide Corporation (UCC) for the victims of the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy.
In its curative plea, the Centre wanted another Rs 7,844 crore over and above the $470 million already paid in a settlement in 1989 by Union Carbide (now owned by Dow Chemicals), the American firm whose plant in Bhopal spewed the highly toxic methyl isocyanate gas that claimed over 3,000 lives and maimed thousands more.
