We are delighted to announce the resounding success of the 46th Safe India Hero Plus Awards – Daman IInd Edition, held on June 16, 2023. The event witnessed the participation of 380 esteemed attendees, including Fire Safety officers, EHS and OSH HODs, as well as Plant Heads from industries in Daman, Silvassa, Vapi, and Valsad.
During the program, we celebrated the bravery and remarkable achievements of 48 regional Firefighters and first responders. Our heartfelt congratulations go out to all the deserving winners who have made exceptional contributions to the field of safety.
We express our deep gratitude to our esteemed Chief Guest, Shri Milind Mahadev Dumbere [IPS], DIGP/Director Fire & Emergency Services, DNH and Daman & Diu, for gracing us with his presence and adding immense value to the event. We were also honored to have Dr. Deepak Ghosh [Dy CFO] from the Mumbai Fire Brigade as our Guest of Honor, along with Shri Dilip Patel Sir, the distinguished author of the first Gujarati language book on Fire Prevention & Protection. Their support and participation made the occasion truly special.
We would like to acknowledge and extend our heartfelt appreciation to our proud sponsors, M/s Prolite Autoglo, M/s Brijbasi Fire Safety, M/s Sure Safety, M/s Fire Safety Devices, and M/s Shah Bhogilal, without whom this event would not have been possible. Their unwavering support and dedication greatly contributed to the success of the program.
Lastly, we dedicate this triumph to our beloved Shri A K VALA – Asst Director Fire & Emergency Services DNH and Daman & DIU, whose invaluable guidance and support played a vital role in making this event a grand success, despite his inability to attend due to the Biperjoy Cyclone in DIU.
We once again congratulate all the winners and express our deepest gratitude to everyone involved. We are immensely grateful for the support received from each and every individual who contributed to this memorable event.
Furthermore, we understand the importance of fire safety and the need for proper training in the workplace. Employers should prioritize fire safety measures and equip their employees with the necessary knowledge and skills to ensure their well-being during emergencies. Adequate fire safety facilities, such as extinguishers and accessible escape routes, are vital for occupants’ safety.
To enhance building safety, it is crucial to understand how individuals behave during a fire and evacuation process. This understanding allows us to tailor fire safety measures to address occupants’ needs effectively. On a somber note, we extend our deepest sympathies to those who lost their loved ones in the Orissa Train Tragedy and the Cyclone in Gujarat. We hope that their near and dear ones find the strength to overcome their loss.
We are excited to announce that our next endeavor, the Bharat Safety Yatra, a series of Safety Seminars, will commence on August 3rd in Indore. This will be followed by our Safe-Tech Awards & Conference, scheduled for September 1st, 2023, at Hotel Taj Mahal, Gateway of India, Mumbai. These events will witness the participation of safety officers, EHS Heads, OSH and HR personnel from various industries, along with the esteemed presence of DISH Authorities or Safety/Chief Safety Inspectors. The seminars will feature informative lectures on different industrial safety subjects and case study discussions, culminating in our “Safe India Hero Plus Awards” to honor local Firefighters in each respective zone.
We express our gratitude to our patrons and readers for their unwavering support and recognition of our publication. It is through their continued support that we can disseminate valuable information on fire safety and promote awareness for the well-being of individuals and communities.
Fire safety is a shared responsibility, and by working together, we can prevent and mitigate the devastating consequences of fire incidents. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our patrons for recognizing our efforts and considering us as one of the noteworthy publications over the years.
