After the brutal murder of 26 tourists in Pahalgam, India and Pakistan are standing on the brink of war. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has already announced that the culprits of this attack and their masters will be taught a lesson. He has given free hand to all three armies. Pakistan is continuously firing on the Line of Control, to which India is giving a befitting reply. Meanwhile, on Wednesday, May 7, a comprehensive mock drill is being conducted across the country on what citizens should do to protect themselves in the event of war. In this sequence, mock drill will be organized in many districts including Bihar's capital Patna.

Siren will sound simultaneously at 80 places
During the mock drill, sirens will be sounded at 80 places in Patna alone at 6:58 pm. During this time, people will be asked to remain alert. Awareness will be created among people about what they should do and what they should not do in case of any attack. Fire brigade and police station vehicles are to be used during the mock drill. The administration said that there is no need to panic during the mock drill. This is just a practice which is being done only to alert people.

There will be a blackout after the siren sounds

Some guidelines have also been given for this. It would be better if the vehicles stop where they are as soon as the siren sounds during the mock drill. It is advised not to turn on the mobile light during this time. According to the information given by the administration, the siren will be sounded for two minutes from 6.58 pm to 7 pm. After this there will be a blackout.
