Subject: Play Safe and cautious Diwali
Deepavali or the Festival of lights is an important and popular
festival celebrated throughout the country in one form or the other
except in Kerala. It falls on the last day of the dark half of
Kartika(October-November). Deepavali is associated with several
legend. One myth says that on this auspicious day Lakshmi, the
Goddess of wealth, roams about and visits the house of people. It also
commemorates the triumph of the good over the evil(or triumph of God
Rama over Ravana and Rama's return to Ayodhya.) It is also on this day
that Krishna killed the demon Nakasura.
A few days before the festival, the houses are whitewashed and
completely cleaned. The courtyards, the gates and the place of
worship are decorated with bandnavars, flowers, intricate colourss
paperwork and at night every nook and corner of the house etc. is
illuminated with earthen lamps, candles and fireworks are displayed.
Sivakasi crackers are the best business with logos of Lion, Kuyil are
available all over India. After the crackers were busted we can see
Tamil news dailies spread all over the streets in pieces and cleaning
becomes an ordeal thereafter. People get up early in the morning in
the south and have bath and move about freely in an atmosphere of
gaiety, mirth, rejoicing and festivity. Lots of sweets are prepared
and exchanged. At night Lakshmi along with Ganesh is worshipped, old
accounts are closed and new accounts are opened with fresh account
books. In Tamil Nadu and other places new Cinemas are released on that
day and the people loved to see the first show to complete Deepavali
festival.
Deepavali also marks the advent of new season and the sowing of new
crops. Thus, this great festival of lights symbolises man's urge to
move towards light of truth from darkness of ignorance and
unhappiness. It is wise to play safe during Diwali to avoid major fire
accidents. The pollution in the air is harmful to lungs and people
have wear mask or stay indoors during the peak time when crackers are
burnt to the maximum. It is wise to go to Kerala during Diwali to
avoid getting submerged in poisonous cracker smoke in Mumbai/Navi
Mumbai.
One should take following precautions while bursting crackers:-
1. Light aerial display fireworks like rockets only on open grounds.
2. Keep fire extinguishers or buckets of water ready to deal with any
accidental fire.
3.Make not of emergency numbers to call in case of an emergency.
4. Keep toddlers and pets like dogs inside house while bursting fire crackers.
5. Do not keep burning candles near your firework cracker bag/s.
6. Do not try your hand in firing more than one cracker at a time.
7. Do not direct rockets towards buildings or towards nearby hutment.
8. Do not fire crackers in the middle of the road when the traffic is on flow.
9. Do not carry crackers inside a car other vehicles or in a local train.
10. Do not try a hand on home made crackers or making use of the fired one.
11. Do not show your face while firing a cracker.
12. Always fire crackers outside your flat.
13. Clear the area of all flammable material before you start bursting crackers
including cars and motor vehicles.
14. Keep tiny children away from fire crackers.
15. Ensure an adult supervision while firing crackers.
16. Use agarbattis instead of sparklers or a lighted matchstick or a
candle to light fire crackers.
17. Do not wear loose clothes while firing crackers.
18. Put all the burnt fire crackers inside a metal contained and dispose them.
19. Make sure if a fire cracker fail to take of or burst leave it
alone in one corner.
20. As the fire crackers suddenly burst do not pass it on but throw it
to remote Corner to avoid fire accidents.
If ensure that all the care is taken with prudence then we celebrate
safe Diwali.
