The Gas Peedhit Rahat Samiti (who described themselves as ‘a coalition of former workers and gas victims’ was formed in July 1985) and received support from the UK in ‘developing an alternative production/employment strategy for the people who have suffered in the tragedy’.
The idea was to focus on developing an alternative production idea, particularly in terms of structures ie ways of creating a co-operative or series of worker/community controlled initiatives which were responsive to local needs.
