Lack of Safety Awareness

Other day I was travelling in a Auto Rickshaw and was delighted to see that There are provisions made to keep the fire extinguishers ,that can be used in case of eventualities.But this moment of delight was temporary.I saw that the news paper was stuffed in the place that was meant for fire extinguisher.Just asked the Driver for this Great(??) action of him,the reply was "I do not require this and there cannot be any fire in his auto".He also informed me that the manufacturing company has made such provisions just to make the auto to look good.....
God save our country!

Safety Awareness!!! Commercial establishments???

We talk about Safety in industries!! but many of us may not have wondered the same safety awareness in some of the premises occupied by commercial establishments like banks,shopping complex etc.

Visit any commercial establishments to see for yourself.We can at the minimum observe the fire extinguishers been blocked by goods and materials.Any question from you to the owner of the shop will be answered in one similar tone ..."Nothing will Happen".."To us Bussiness is more important than giving importance to such things...!

Just look at the picture...I took this picture(with most difficulty) at one of the nationalized Banks(Name of the bank is not important..as only issue is of prime concern).The bank officials had cooly put a calender ...nicely hooked to fire extinguisher.When asked came a usual reply "Nothing will happen"

The Government need to do a lot for making them understand that in case of a real emergency the staff and customers will be charred to death...

God knows whether these commercial establishments conduct fire evacuation drills???
