Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 4 : 11 September

The correct answer is 11 September.

• World First Aid Day is observed on the second Saturday of September annually.
• For 2021, it was celebrated on 11 September across the globe.
• The theme for World First Aid Day 2021 is ‘First aid and road safety,’ according to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
• The day was first observed in the year 2000.

• The special day is marked to encourage people in first aid training which helps in preventing injuries and saving lives in critical situations.
• It promotes recovery and, in many cases, first aid may be necessary to keep the victim alive before he/she can be taken to the hospital or before a doctor arrives for more specialised treatment.
