Two recent fire incidents have resulted in numerous deaths, anguish and tragedy. There is the Rajkot gaming zone fire and the horrendous fire at a Delhi hospital. Fierce charges are being exchanged and a blame game is on. As usual, there will be a great post-disaster awakening. Checks will be done at gaming zones and hospitals now, something that had to be done regularly and from inception.
While that is on, this should be a nudge to all to watch out in our immediate environment and take measures. The first is building societies. The society committee and all residents in fact must make sure it is fire-compliant. Once equipment is installed, ensure regular checks of equipment.
