You shall use all your senses to monitor very carefully all that goes on about you, inside and outside’

An alert person can save many mishaps. So there is no alternative of alertness. If people are vigilant, even the most seditious person just cannot think of committing a misdeed in a particular area. Alertness is particularly cardinal during the festive season. We believe prevention is always better than detection.
