Find a safe corner during an earthquake

On August 24, 2016 afternoon, I was at my office when all of a sudden, the whole building started shaking. Soon after sensing the tremor, panic gripped the workers and most of them rushed to the stairs. 

We need to understand that rushing for safety in a congested city like Dhaka could result in serious accidents like a stampede. As earthquake is occurring frequently in our country, we should develop our preparedness in this regard and it would be better, if we choose a safe corner of the building during an earthquake instead of rushing to the stairs.
