In recent times,the Lebanon blast which occured due to Ammonium Nitrate is not a small thing for the countries to avoid it.It is a matter of concern not only for India but for the world who have such storages of different chemicals at different places in their country.Every country who have such storages of chemicals must take first hand precaution by keeping in mind the blast that happened in Beirut,Lebanon.
Chemicals are very complex in natures and they appear a type of bomb threat to the society.It is known to any of the common people where they are going or standing below that there is storage of it.In India chemicals are handled both formally and informally it includes both highly toxic and non-toxic.So for country like India it is necessary for them to have precautions in these area where such kind of dealings are taking place.It is the matter of lives of the people.
In this case to cure any of such blasts in future,the Ministry of Environment first need to identify such chemicals that could harm a major population of the country and then where are they stored.So that,in this case they can check the temperatures of that area and how the place is maintained.They should seek helps from different experts in that field and try to find out different ways to solve the issues.
A handling protocol could also be prepared in this case where in that every detail should be present such as from when the chemical is stored,for how long it has been stored,and also how to store that chemical.We all know it is a chemical and they are very complex so prior alarm of such kind issues should be well placed and protected so that it does not harm the economy in any terms.
As the chemical is being traded in the market,the trader should know certain rules and regulations for trading at different levels for that a fixed protocol should be issued from grass root level to the administrative level.So,in this case whoever is trading toxic chemicals would have some kind of fear in their mind before doing false supply of it.For this the registration system should be flexible as well as strong so that without registration no one can make a deal of such harmful chemicals which could lead to chemical catastrophe.
This were the basics,we need to focus to strengthen it and make strong decision on it.
