Diwali Safety Tips

Diwali is thoroughly enjoyed by people of all age groups as they love the
sparkle of fireworks. The earthen lamps that we light on Diwali night are
generally placed on balcony and window ledges. So ensure that these are
not near any flammable material like wood, cloth or paper. Usually,
decorative lights are used on special occasions only and as such not much
care is given to one's life. The electric lights should never be tied to any
metal poles as any current leak can energize the pole and give a shock to
anyone who touches the pole.
All incidents due to fireworks occur as a result of carelessness, negligence
and ignorance. But these can certainly be avoided by observing some very
simple precautions. All of us enjoy the pleasure of light and sound but
when disaster strikes the injured has to bear the cross. If you're going to
set off fireworks at home this year, please take a few minutes to read
through the guidelines.
Do’s
 Look for an open space and ensure there are no combustible and
inflammatory things around. If so remove them at once
 Always buy fireworks from licensed and reliable sellers
 Keep small children away from the bursting area
 Use a sparkler, agarbatti or a long fire wood to burst a cracker as they
keep you at a safe distance and do not possess open flames
 Read the label on the crackers and follow the instructions carefully.
 While igniting aerial fire works like rockets ensure that they are not
facing any opening like an open window, door or an open building
which may cause fire accidents.
 Keep fireworks stock away while lighting a particular firework.
 Wear footwear while lighting fireworks.
 Keep and a bucket full of water handy.
 Be Prepared for Emergency Organize a community display of
fireworks rather than individuals handling crackers.
 Keep first aid & two buckets of water handy. In the event of fire,
extinguish flame by pouring water from the buckets. Every major fire
is small when it starts Light only one firework at a time, by one
person. Others should watch from a safe distance.
 In case of burns, pour large quantity of water on the burnt area.
 In case of major burns, after extinguishing the fire, remove all
smouldering clothes. Wrap the victim in a clean bed sheet.
 The patient should immediately take to the hospital. Don't panic.
 In case of eye burns, wash the eye with tap water for 10 minutes and
take the victim to a hospital.
