[in-enaction] monumentality: Bhopal Memorial (in the news again) (!)

ref: http://www.architexturez.in/sys/index.cgi?phrase=bhopal+memorial

TWENTY-TWO YEARS after the world’s worst industrial disaster struck 
Bhopal, the Madhya Pradesh Government is still toying with the idea of 
constructing a memorial of the Union Carbide gas tragedy. However, 
hundreds of huge buildings serve as ‘monuments’, as they remind the gas 
victims of the ambitious plans for their relief and rehabilitation, 
which never materialised.

Huge hospital buildings for medical and industrial sheds for economic 
rehabilitation, a large ITI building for training in industrial 
occupations, gas widows’ colony etc. All for rehabilitation of gas 
victims. But, none of the plans seem to have worked and the cries of 
victims’ ‘neglect’ grows shriller by the year.
