In Indian culture, Fire is considered to be God and is worshipped. The fire under control is truly Godly as it gives heat for cooking, protection from cold wave, in the boiler to generate steam and thereby electricity etc. But once it goes out of control the damage it causes is unimaginable as it becomes a Ghost and the losses are irreparable, irrevocable and irreversible. Thus, understanding the basics of fire, the fire safety measures, the fire fighting methods are very important for one and all.
To commemorate the loss of lives in the fire accident took place at Victoria Dock in the Bombay Port on 14th April, 1944, every year April 14th is observed as Fire Service Day and under the guidance of the Fire adviser, Ministry Home Affairs, Government of India, all the organizations observe the Fire Service Week (FSW) in all the industries.
