It is illegal for American companies to even try to bribe foreign politicians and political parties. No one knows how and why Dow Chemicals tried to influence ruling BJP party in Madhya Pradesh. Three leading Bhopal Gas Peedit (sufferers) organizations have accused the ruling BJP party for accepting Rs one lakh donation from Dow Chemicals.

"BBC's report about Dow Chemical's Rs one lakh donation to BJP explains the Madhya Pradesh government's aggressive efforts to protect the American Multinational from its environmental responsibilities in Bhopal", Syed M Irfan, President of Bhopal Gas Peedit Mahila, Purush Sabgharsh Morcha said in Bhopal.

The money should be returned by BJPand Bush Administration should investigate if Dow Chemicals violated the lawby truing to bribe Indian political parties.

Presenting Right to Information documents to the Press, he said Rs one lakh donation to BJP is merely the tip of the iceberg as the "favours extended by state government by way of pushing for burning of Union Carbide's toxic wastes, despite the recommendations of experts, is clearly worth a lot more to Dow".
