9. Solutions to Fake Fire Alarms- With Fire Alarms
 Inadequate Cameras Facility
a. Reviewing the performance of Cameras on daily basis
b. Installing Cameras at strategic locations with the
apartments.(currently no cameras here)
 Moral Obligation
a. Paste Sticker directly above the Fire Alarms mentioning-:
“ A civilized person doesn’t press this button un-necessarily, he
presses it to save lives and you are one of them!”

10. Without Fire Alarm-Option Busting
• Speakers – Currently available in each apartment. But prone to power-cuts.
• Guards knocking on every floor- Currently a practice, but very time consuming.

11. BMU Fire Safety App:
a)Almost 99% of BMU students have smart
phones.
b) A simple app that can penetrate into every
such smart-phone.
c) Serves 3 basic purpose- 1) Gives real-time
fire alert on your SM(even with zero volume).
2) Send you the location of fire. You now
know the exit-route.
3) Any Student can click and send the
location of fire to the admin who can then
authorize a fire-alert.
d) Only the hostel warden/head guard will
have admin control through which they can
send the location and authorize a fire alert.
