"Everyone in the family must know where the emergency exit and staircase are. The building caretaker must also make sure that the exit points and staircase are free of any hindrances in case of an evacuation."
Elaborating on safety measures, he added: "It is true that technical and electrical faults can be the cause of fire in your vehicle. Small accidents can affect the electrical systems in the vehicle. Small leaks of oil, petrol or car refrigerant can cause fire. The best solution is regular maintenance of the vehicle by qualified personnel. I advise not to leave any flammable materials, such as lighters, sanitisers, perfumes, in the car to ensure your safety. Lastly, putting the fire extinguisher in the vehicle is just as important as everything mentioned before."
"Each room has two exits - a door and a window. The window is considered an alternative exit for people and serves as an entry point to the building for firefighters during rescue operations."
Officials urged residents to carry out mock evacuation drills twice a year with family members to enable them to deal with the real-life situation. Mock drills will also help a person to understand how they react to an emergency situation and help to correct their mistakes.
"These are simple measures but you can't imagine their effectiveness," the official added.
