Safety first for this Diwali
Crackers form an integral part of Diwali celebrations and can’t be done away with.However, no celebration should end in mishaps. The RWA or Apartment owners association must ensure safe and secure diwali celebration in their apartment communities. If you are going to set off fireworks this year, ensure precautions are taken for Fireworks Safety.
Besides keeping security or adults supervision in bursting crackers, every apartment must ensure that apartments fire fighting devices are properly working. The fire extinguishers and first aid kits are readily apartment and there is sufficient water storage and sand in case of fire or emergency. Have a full bucket of water and sand handy for any emergency and for putting used sparklers into.
Some apartment owners association and RWA are supporting campaign such as Diwali celebration only with lights, “cracker-free Diwali”, ‘No Crackers’ campaign etc to eliminate sound and air pollution. Some apartment owners association banned bursting of crackers in inside the blocks,corridors, balconies, terraces, basement areas etc.
Apartment associations must communicated the Diwali rules and regulations to the apartment owners and residents by putting them up on notice boards or sending message through e-mails, sms or through online portal.
