Fire safety isn’t just some rule to follow, it’s what can save lives when things go wrong. Especially here in Bengaluru, where everything’s so close and packed, a fire can start anywhere and spread fast.

Remember the fire in Whitefield back in 2018? A short circuit in a car parked in the basement led to a tragedy where a mother and her little kid lost their lives. The fire brigade came quickly, but sometimes even that isn’t enough.

That’s why Karnataka insists every society has proper fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, sprinklers, and that everyone keeps checking and practicing fire safety.
