Bhupinder maintained that fire incidents are more prone to occur in winter conditions as there are issues of over-usage of heating devices for which he cautioned all the officers to remain vigilant.

With respect to projects of fire fighting systems under execution, he exhorted upon the officers to chase the executing agencies for early completion of the projects.
