//Dil Se Desi// Happy Diwali ...:::... Some do's and Don'ts Related to Deepawlii





WHILE WISHING U ALL A VERY HAPPY, PROSPEROUS AND SAFE DIWALI, SOME PRECAUTION PLEASE!!!
 
 
 
If possible enjoy Deepawali with lightings and sweets and AVOID FIREWORKS. However, should you still be lighting fireworks do take SAFETY precautions.

Following are some DO' s and DON'Ts related to Deepawali:
 
  • Check the area before igniting fireworks to be sure all flammable and combustible materials are removed. 
  • Follow all safety precautions issued with the fireworks. 
  • Use a candle or an agarbathi to ignite the fireworks. They burn without an open flame and provide a greater, safer distance between your hand and the fireworks. Open flames from lighters and matches can cause additional fire hazards. 
  • Have a fire extinguisher or bucket of water at hand to extinguish an incipient fire. Keep burn ointments handy. 
  • Have a safe landing zone for aerial fireworks. Consideration must be given to wind direction and the ignitability of everything in the landing zone.
  • The traditional paper decorative items are usually highly combustible and should, therefore, be kept well away from any heat source.
  • Remember stepladder safety when hanging decorations and lighting.
  • Don't block stairways or other exits
  • Never use chairs or other pieces of furniture to stand on.
  • Place all candles in sturdy containers
  • Extinguish all candles before you go to bed
  • Never ignite fireworks while holding them. Put them down, then ignite them and walk away. 
  • Never confine fireworks being ignited. Don't put fireworks in any container to ignite. 
  • Never assume an ignited fireworks, that fails to explode, is safe to approach. Many people have been injured by a delayed explosion. Any malfunctioning fireworks should be abandoned. 
  • Never mix anything with the contents of the fireworks or make fireworks at home. Don't put others in danger at your personal risk. 
  • Never ignite aerial fireworks where overhead obstructions (trees, eaves, wires, etc.) may interfere with trajectory into open air space. Never ignite aerial fireworks near an opening to a building. An open garage door or window could allow aerial fireworks to fly into the structure and cause a fire. 
  • Never use fireworks inside or in a vehicle. 
  • Obey the law. 
  • Use fireworks outdoors, but not on the public thoroughfare. 
  • Light only one item at a time, and put used fireworks in a bucket of water. 
  • Read and follow the directions on all fireworks, and never point or throw them at another person 
  • Don't let small children handle fireworks; make sure there is adult supervision. 
  • Always have water handy (a garden hose and a bucket). 
  • Never experiment or make your own fireworks. 
  • Never re-light a "dud" firework (wait 15 to 20 minutes and then soak it in a bucket of water). 
  • Never allow small children to ignite fireworks. 
  • Never throw or point fireworks at other people.
  • Never carry fireworks in your pocket. 
  • Never shoot fireworks in metal or glass containers. 


Remember :       
Use of Fireworks is prohibited after 10:00 PM as per the Noise   Pollution ( Regulation & Control ) Rules, 2000, Government of India. The noise permissible limit for residential area is 45 dB(A).

Once again Wish you a very happy & SAFE Deepawali!
