Safe Diwali
Ushering
in truth and light, Diwali is celebrated nation-wide at the dawn of Amavaasya
every year. It symbolizes the age-old culture of our country which teaches us
to vanquish ignorance that subdues humanity and to drive away darkness that engulfs
the light of knowledge. Diwali, the festival of light projects the rich and
glorious past of our country and teaches us to uphold the true values of life.
On
the auspicious occasion of Diwali, the following tips can go a long way in
making the celebrations safe and memorable for you:
Eating tips:
- The festival
brings with it its own set of preparations & rituals. Even then to
enjoy it the fullest and avoid stress along with physical illness, it is
imperative to have healthy & small meals while juggling between
meeting visiting relatives, organizing Puja at home, burning crackers
& shopping. Also, Diabetics and the people with high blood sugar level
must be very careful during Diwali and avoid high intake of sweets.
Safety During Burning
Crackers:
- Always accompany children
while burning crackers
- Be alert while
burning crackers as clothes are prone to catching fire
- Only buy crackers
from authorized dealers in order to ensure its quality
- Have a bucket
full of water ready as a precautionary measure
- Avoid putting
crackers near diyas, candles as they may lead to explosion and may injure
you
- Keep all the
emergency numbers handy like Police, Ambulance, Hospital to save the time
during emergency.
Celebrate an Eco-Friendly
Diwali
• Eco-Friendly Rangoli: Rangoli is an
essential part of any Indian festival. Instead of using harmful chemical colors
or paints for Rangoli design, you can substitute them with rice flour, pulse,
flowers, eco friendly colors and leaves.
• Save Energy: Since people decorate
their home by lighting them up. This places a huge load on the power supply
system. One can save a lot of electricity by opting candles and diyas for
decorating their home. Even though they consume oil, these lamps are usually
used only for a short time.
• Prevent Water Pollution: Water is a
precious commodity & irregular rainfalls have made it more scarce.
Encourage people to burn crackers away from these useful water bodies so that
clean water is accessible throughout the year
If
possible, avoid crackers all together, remember its a festival of lights not
sound. The same can go a long way in soothing elder people who yearn for peace
in these times.
For
any medical emergency Dial 1298 for Ambulance for immediate assistance and
support as every second counts during medical scenario.
