SC notice to Centre in Bhopal gas case

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the Centre to spell out its stand on the curative petition seeking an additional compensation of Rs 7,844 crore from Dow Chemicals, the successor of US company Union Carbide, for the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy that had left over 3,000 dead. The Bench posted the matter for October 11.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
