Patiala- Employees of Punjab Fire and Emergency Services are the great helping angels of the country, because when fire breaks out due to mistakes and negligence of people, people run outside to save their lives and call the fire brigade for help. Firefighters immediately jump into the fire to save people's property and lives, day and night, in every season and during festivals, due to which many times firefighters also get burnt or martyred in the fire.
This view was expressed by Mr. Kaka Ram Verma, Chief Trainer of First Aid Safety Health Awareness Mission and Mr. Upkar Singh, President of Gyan Jyoti Education Society, while felicitating Patiala Fire Officer Rajinder Kaushal and employees. Expressing gratitude, Mr. Rajinder Kaushal said that every year many employees of fire and emergency services die while extinguishing fire in homes, factories, shops and vehicles.
Organising this felicitation ceremony, Principal of Aryan Kanya Senior Secondary School, Mrs. Santosh Goyal, Scout Guide Training Commissioner Ravinder Kaur Sidhu, Alka Arora prayed for the good health, fitness, safety, respect, prosperity and progress of fire, army doctors, nurses and police personnel and appealed that people should use fire, electricity, gases, petroleum products with utmost caution, for which accidents and deaths can be reduced by providing training and practice through subject experts.
On this occasion, Punjab Police Traffic Education Cell Incharge Sub Inspector Ajit Kaur, ASI Ram Saran said that one should try to make his future safe, healthy and prosperous by following the rules and laws of the country and avoiding drugs, crime and bad elements. Trainings organised from time to time on disaster management, first aid, fire and road safety will prove to be very useful for safety and protection.
