    This is a very good practical training and public awareness regarding importance of Safety especially our new generation will benifit from this.

    However if we look into the action of Fire fighters, one important safety is missing. Where is the Hand gloves, face shield? face mask ? officers are not at all wearing. Authority should think of this !!!!!
