The Mumbai Fire Brigade (MFB) in partnership with NGO Project Mumbai has started a unique campaign of training citizen volunteers in fire safety and awareness. In just three months, MFB has successfully trained over 6,000 citizens in basic first response to minor fire and other emergencies.
Under this initiative, citizen volunteers are taught and trained about types/levels of fire, different mechanisms to extinguish it, and how to evacuate people, and clear the way for fire brigade vehicles etc.“We do not train these people in handling major fires or mishaps. The aim is to douse minor fires through extinguishers and know what protocol to follow in case of major incidents. Apart from this, they will be able to act as first responders by clearing the area blocked by vehicles and other things for fire tenders/ water tankers to pass and reach the spot in time. Sometimes, clearing the hurdles leads to wasting crucial time,” said the chief fire officer of MFB Hemant Parab.
