Hi doc,is it safe to use bleaching powder to clean water storage tanks,considering that water is used for bathing &it may get into eyes n cause damage

Probably OK: The bleaching powder and clean and sanitize the tank Presumably you will thoroughly wash it out with water with several exchanges so residual bleach, if any, will be so diluted out that no harm will come from it.
