प्रश्न
You are a volunteer in your locality to serve people who are affected by floods. How will you caution them to move to a safer place taking only their bare necessities? Describe.
उत्तर
If I am a volunteer serving people affected by floods, I will first ask them to remain calm and have patience. Then, in a gentle voice I will give them the following instructions:
- Be prepared! We may need to move to a safer place as the floods are getting worse.
- Pack a bag with only your important items.
- Take a few clothes, a pair of bedsheets and a blanket.
- Keep your official documents, like degrees, license, PAN card, etc.
- Pack some eatables that can last long.
- Take some medicines.
- Turn off utilities at the main switches or valves.
- Disconnect all electrical appliances.
- If you have to walk in water, wherever possible, walk where the water is not moving.
- Take a stick to check the firmness of the ground in front of you.
- While moving out, please be together with your family and take care of each other.
- Do not panic. It is going to be alright soon. We will return home when authorities indicate it is safe.
