It takes seconds to turn a fun filled day to a nightmare. This is all the more true in case of Diwali, so make sure you take sufficient precautions while making merry.
WHILE EVERYBODY of his age waits eagerly for Diwali every year, 6-year-old Adwai, from Kolkata, dreads this day the most in his life. “Diwali 2014 was a nightmare for us—Adwai, got a severe asthma attack that day and we had to rush him to the nursing home, where he had to be kept for three days,” recalls his mom Leena Chatterjee, 32. Being a premature baby, Adwai had weak lungs which made him more susceptible than others to cough, cold and other respiratory issues. The massive air pollution during that time had worsened his condition. From then on, Adwai avoids stepping out of his room on this day.
Adwai is only one among thousands of other kids who have difficulties during Diwali. While it is best to celebrate the festival with rangolis, diyas and crafts, and avoid firecrackers altogether, it’s not always possible to keep kids away from them. This calls for precautionary measures. We give you the top three risks you need to be cautious of, to celebrate safely.
