Authorities in Kashmir have issued an advisory, warning people about the high risk of forest fire over the next seven days.<\/p>\n
In a letter issued by the office of the Kashmir divisional commissioner, deputy commissioners of all 10 districts of the valley have been directed to make people living in fire-prone areas aware of the risk.<\/p>\n
“It is crucial that everyone, particularly those in fire-prone areas, are made aware of the current risks and proactive measures are taken to prevent any incidents,” the letter reads.<\/p>\n
It also asks the authorities to use all available platforms, including social media, local media and community meetings to inform citizens about the risks.<\/p>\n
The advisory urged the people to stay alert, avoid open flames and report any signs of fire promptly.<\/p>\n
The field staff, forest workers and emergency responders were directed to be on high alert.<\/p>\n
“Ensure that all forest staff, local authorities and emergency responders are notified and briefed on the current fire risk. They should be prepared with fire-fighting equipment and ready to take action if necessary,” it added.<\/p>\n
