Do we need a Chemical safety board?
After the Bhopal gas disaster and other accidents, the US set up a chemical safety board that investigates chemical accidents and published its investigation reports on the web. (www.csb.gov). In India, it is very difficult to obtain information about the root causes of chemical plant accidents. The HPCL incident, the Jaipur Incident and many others are examples.Is it time that a Chemical Safety Board similar to that of the CSB is set up in India?

Nothing like it. will industry support the same? Indian Chemical Safety Board should be an independent body and should not be interfered by any body.
