Detailed Solution

The statement is false.
India's first significant industrial tragedy. Methyl isocyanate (MIC), a chemical, leaked from a pesticide facility owned by Union Carbide India Ltd. (UCIL) on December 2, 1984, turning the city of Bhopal into a massive gas chamber. More than 600,000 workers were harmed, and more than 15,000 individuals died due to at least 30 tonnes of methyl isocyanate gas. The Bhopal gas tragedy is the most significant industrial accident in history. The outcomes include:
1)      Improved process safety.
2)      New, inherently safer plants.
3)      More authoritarian court rulings.
4)      Proactive media and NGOs.
5)      A more aware public of human rights.
