Updated
The Indian government says it will set up a commission to examine some of the grievances of victims of the 1984 Bhopal gas leak which killed more than 15,000 people.
Campaigners from Bhopal have been camping on the streets of Delhi for the last two months to publicise their case.
India says it will also press the US company that owns the former Union Carbide to clean up the site of what has been called the world's worst industrial accident.
US-based Dow Chemicals bought Union Carbide 15 years after the disaster.
The Bhopal disaster occurred when a storage tank at a Union Carbide India pesticide plant spewed deadly cyanide gas into the air, killing thousands of slum dwellers.
