300 containers carrying oil and hazardous chemicals have fell into the arebian sea 10Km off the coast of Mumbai. The coast guard and vairous other government agancies are at work to contain the effects of the spill. So far about 50 tons of oil has leaked into the sea and fishermen have been asked to stay clear of the area.

Do you think the Indian Government will handle this spill as a serious environmental disaster or look at it as a economic windfall by tring to cover up the issue, levy heavy fines and extract monies from the two companies that own the ships.
