Solution

The correct option is B Get out of water logged areas
Lightning strikes on metallic surfaces and high rise structures. Therefore, we should stay away from metallic structures.
Also, rain water helps reduce the resistance of skin, helping it to conduct electricity. So staying in waterlogged areas can be hazardous.
