Madhya Pradesh's Tuberculosis Drug Shortage Could Impact Over A Lakh Patients
Survivors of the Bhopal gas tragedy of 1984 - one of the world's worst industrial disasters - and their children are now facing a new challenge - a shortage of drugs to treat tuberculosis at government DOTS centres.

NDTV's Anurag Dwary reports.
