Group Question Read the following passage and answer the questions.

The Chairman and CEO of Union Carbide, Warren Anderson, had been arrested and released on bail by the Madhya Pradesh Police in Bhopal on December 7, 1984. The arrest, which took place at the airport, assured Anderson would meet no harm by the Bhopal community. Anderson was taken to Union Carbide's house after which he was released six hours later on $2,100 bail and flown out on a government plane. In 1987, the Indian government summoned Anderson, eight other executives and two company affiliates with homicide charges to appear in Indian court. Union Carbide balked, saying the company is not under Indian jurisdiction. Beginning in 1991, the local authorities from Bhopal charged Anderson, who had retired in 1986, with manslaughter, a crime that carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. Anderson has so far avoided an international arrest warrant and a US court summons. He was declared a fugitive from justice by the Chief Judicial Magistrate of Bhopal on February 1, 1992, for failing to appear at the court hearings in a culpable homicide case in which he was named the chief defendant. Orders were passed to the Government of India to press for an extradition from the United States, with whom India had an extradition treaty in place. The Bhopal Medical Appeal believes that "neither the American nor the Indian government seem interested in disturbing him with an extradition". A seemingly apathetic attitude from the US government, which has failed to pursue the case, has also led to strong protests in the past, most notably by Greenpeace. A plea by India's Central Bureau of Investigation to dilute the charges from culpable homicide to criminal negligence has since been dismissed by the Indian courts. The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of the decision of the lower federal courts in October 1993, meaning that victims of the Bhopal disaster could not seek damages in a US court. On the anniversary of the tragedy, effigies of Anderson and politicians are burnt.
 
Q. How can Union Carbide salvage its image?
  • a)
    By giving ongoing advertisements in Indian newspapers stating the tremendous growth in profits and taxes it continues to pay in India year-on-year.
  • b)
    By conducting an online poll asking people's opinions and impressions about its products and services.
  • c)
    By making public that Anderson no longer works with them and how they can no longer be held responsible.
  • d)
    By making public credible information surrounding the events under consideration and explaining how the company or the employees had no role to play.
  • e)
    By creating a charter of morals and ethics to be followed by Union Carbide's employees in all the countries, citing Bhopal as the foundation for it.
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?
Verified Answer
Group Question Read the following passage and answer the questions.The...
Solution: Salvaging the image is a public relations exercise where they need to be perceived as making efforts to help the victims or making efforts to help take the case against Anderson. If neither of the two, then they need to present a case to come clean on the whole matter. Option 4 does just that. If it had no role to play and the allegations are unfounded (even if later) then it stands to reason (in the public's eyes) that the company or its employees (including the CEO) should not be tried in a court and punished.
Option 1 only has an economic angle to it. This will not suffice where charges of mass murder are made.
Option 2 is tangential.
Option 3 is an attempt to wash one's hands and duck out of the situation- will not help its image.
Option 5 will help salvage the company's image somewhat, but it is not related to the matter at hand- the Bhopal Gas Tragedy- and can therefore be eliminated in favour of option 4. Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
NOTE: The passage does not mention Union Carbide being the cause for the tragedy. Please do not use prior knowledge but stick strictly to the facts mentioned in the passage.
Hence, the correct answer is option 4.

Can you explain this answer? has been provided alongside types of Group Question Read the following passage and answer the questions.The Chairman and CEO of Union Carbide, Warren Anderson, had been arrested and released on bail by the Madhya Pradesh Police in Bhopal on December 7, 1984. The arrest, which took place at the airport, assured Anderson would meet no harm by the Bhopal community. Anderson was taken to Union Carbides house after which he was released six hours later on $2,100 bail and flown outon a government plane. In 1987, the Indian government summoned Anderson, eight other executives and two company affiliates with homicide charges to appear in Indian court. Union Carbide balked, saying the company is not under Indian jurisdiction. Beginning in 1991, the local authorities from Bhopal charged Anderson, who had retired in 1986, with manslaughter, a crime that carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. Anderson has so far avoided an international arrest warrant and a US court summons. He was declared a fugitive from justice by the Chief Judicial Magistrate of Bhopal on February 1, 1992, for failing to appear at the court hearings in a culpable homicide case in which he was named the chief defendant. Orders were passed to the Government of India to press for an extradition from the United States, with whom India had an extradition treaty in place. The Bhopal Medical Appeal believes that "neither the American nor the Indian government seem interested in disturbing him with an extradition". A seemingly apathetic attitude from the US government, which has failed to pursue the case, has also led to strong protests in the past, most notably by Greenpeace. A plea by Indias Central Bureau of Investigation to dilute the charges from culpable homicide to criminal negligence has since been dismissed by the Indian courts.
