LPG Cylinder: This is not a vastu story. Vastu experts say that the cylinder should be placed in a certain place. Not everyone can follow them all. We will put it somewhere. But.. after reading this story.. our thinking will change. Let's find out what

A strange incident happened in Bangalore. The owner of a kebab food store along Ejipura main road was busy at 9.30pm. Meanwhile the gas in the cylinder has run out. So.. he removed that cylinder. He started setting the new cylinder. Just then.. the fire broke out. With that.. he threw that cylinder out on the road. There are rows of bikes parked there. Immediately they caught fire. 5 bikes and one auto were completely burnt.

Everything happened in seconds. All the people there were shocked to see all this. How did the original cylinder catch fire? How did those flames catch on to the bikes? Many questions like this.. After a deep examination.. the real thing came to know. While setting the cylinder to the stove.. he did not switch off the stove. It is on. So.. as soon as the regulator was set to the cylinder.. immediately the gas came heavily.. the stove caught fire.. it was known that the cylinder was burnt.

After this incident, the locals called the fire service. They came and controlled the fire. After that the Vivek Nagar police registered a case against the shop owner. A case has been filed under section 287 which means negligence in respect of an object which may cause a fire.

So our point is what is the relationship between this incident and our cylinder at home. We also have to be careful about where we keep the cylinder in our homes. If a cylinder catches fire... we should be able to remove it immediately. The shop owner threw the cylinder out to save his life and prevent the shop from burning down. But.. the place where it was thrown was not right.. a case was registered. If this happens in our homes, we should immediately arrange to remove the cylinder from there. Any delay can cause the cylinder to explode. So the cylinder should not be placed in too many corners. Also.. should not be placed too close to the stove. In case of fire, keep a water or fire extinguisher nearby to put out the fire immediately. Then the fire is extinguished and the cylinder is prevented from exploding. Something should be done and arrangements should be made to avoid the accident.
