Precautions Need to be taken During Earthquake

Just experienced an earthquake and I was not only one. This made me to practice the precautionary measures which I had studied during my school days.

Following are the precautions need to be taken during an earthquake.

  • Rush to safe location like a doorway or in a ground where no building, electricity pole or a tower is in nearby vicinity.
  • In case you are unable to go out of the building then take shelter below a table or desk.
  • Always cover the back portion of your head and protect your eyes in order to prevent the injury caused by debris.
  • Do not use lifts or elevators during an earthquake.
  • If you are in kitchen, then first switch off the knob of gas cylinder and then escape.

  • Captain K10 told me that he was driving the car when today he experienced the earthquake. He quickly stopped the car and stayed inside the vehicle. He ensured that he did not stop near any bridge, electricity tower, over or below flyover and any other dangerous location. He displayed the perfect way of precautionary measure to be taken during earthquake.
  • Captain K10 stayed calm and remain in senses. This is the most important thing to be done during such natural disaster.


I hope few of my points and Captain K10 experience will help you during any such natural disaster. We hope you never experience any such disaster but there is nothing wrong to be stay prepared.

Longewala is prevalent because of the illustrious skirmish tussled between India and Pakistan in 1971. The clash of Longewala is all about how hundred odd men clogged and overwhelmed approximately 2000 Pakistani legionnaires. This battle was all about the audacity, impetus, chauvinism and drive to prizefight exhibited by those eighty Indian warriors. This scuffle is one of my favorite scuffles, and whenever I come to this place, my mind start envisaging how horde of men repudiated the destiny. During the Indo-Pak war of 1971, A-Coy of 23 Punjab had taken up the defences at Longewala. The A-Coy company commander was Major Kuldeep Singh Chandpuri later on emer...
