Focus on floods
When social activists say this is the first thing we need to know about this incident. Do not go to dangerous places. Going to the waterfalls is dangerous as the wild floods come anytime during the rainy season. we can bath and enjoy at anytime but we are living once. It is dangerous to bathe there while flooding with women and children. Such irresponsible acts should never be done. Water levels during the rainy season should never go to the mountains where landslides occur. Another is to help in times of danger. Get the right help at the right time. Do not hesitate to help.
