“Is his personal and political relationship more important to Amarinder than the interest of the victims”? he further asked.
Jaitley clarified about the allegation levelled against him by Amarinder in connection with the Bhopal gas tragedy, saying, “I have advised and appeared for thousands of clients as a part of my professional commitment.
If persons or a company not involved in the tragedy, wanted to have the benefit of my advice, it is my professional ethics as a lawyer to give them the correct legal advice. This is what I have done.”
Dow Jones has nothing to do with either the Union Carbide or Bhopal gas tragedy.
It is a leading American financial company. Dow Jones incidentally owns the Wall Street Journal.
The name of the lawyer who appeared against Bhopal gas victims is Abhishek Manu Singhvi, who is the chief spokesperson of Amarinder's political party, he said.
