Disabled children are playing on a slide and on a swing during an afternoon at Chingari Trust Rehabilitation Centre in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, central India, near the abandoned Union Carbide (now DOW Chemical) industrial complex, site of the infamous 1984 gas tragedy in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, central India. The poisonous cloud that enveloped Bhopal left everlasting consequences that today continue to consume people's lives. The trust, funded by The Bhopal Medical Appeal, a British-based NGO, offers counselling, education, physiotherapy and love to hundreds of children born from gas-affected parents or fed highly contaminated water since an early age, when the body is more likely to be affected, and to suffer irreparable damage to health and wellbeing.
