In such a situation, you do not need to panic in case of fire. In case of fire, contact the fire brigade service on number 101 as soon as possible and inform them. Also, try to control the fire yourself. To extinguish the fire, buckets filled with water, buckets of sand, ladders, blankets, and fire extinguisher cylinders can be used. If the fire starts getting out of control, it is better to run away from there to an open field, so that there is no loss of life.

This is how you can control the fire.

Fire can be prevented from spreading by pouring sand, soil, or water from a bucket on the fire. In case of a fire in a factory or mill, turn off the main power switch immediately. If a person's clothes catch fire, extinguish it with a towel. Try to lay the person whose clothes are on fire on the ground. Then pour cold water on the burnt part. During this, take care not to remove anything stuck on the burnt part with your hand. Wrap the patient in a blanket call 102 and try to take him to the hospital with the help of an ambulance.

Keep these things in mind too.

Keep in mind that plastic and wood catch fire quickly, in case of a fire, remove flammable things, plastic and wood immediately because this can cause a dangerous fire. Apart from this, if the fire seems to be getting worse, then you have to run out of the house without caring about unnecessary things and keep trying to extinguish the fire from outside yourself until the fire brigade arrives.
