The watchdog launched a three-phase 'Corporate Accountability Tour of India' in early November to bring to light the apathy of companies when it comes to environmental responsibility.

The first phase was in Alang; the second phase was in Mumbai, where the crew was to conduct programmes to commemorate the Bhopal gas tragedy; and the last phase was in Kochi where, the watchdog says, the Hindustan Insecticides Limited, which runs the only DDT factory in the world, is poisoning the Periyar river.
