01:04 I just saw some policemen just patrolling around but there was nothing to worry about.
01:08 It was completely normal as a daily schedule we have.
01:11 I stay in South Chidiwala which is near the Guda city centre.
01:14 It's fine here, it's normal.
01:17 Just that very less traffic, it's quiet on the roads.
01:20 But otherwise I don't see any disturbance on this side of the city.
01:23 Nothing on this side.
01:25 I think it's mostly on the outskirts near the borders.
01:29 And in the Badshahpur area.
01:33 That's what I know.
01:35 Yeah, I did went to my workplace but I was being asked to leave home early because of
01:39 the flashes around due to that news.
01:42 So we came home early.
01:43 I did.
01:44 So there was an advice from the company that we can kind of use our own precautions.
01:48 But I did go to office for some work.
01:50 We have not received any formal instructions as of now.
01:53 But yeah, due to that violence and the section that has been implemented, we have been asked
01:57 to work from home as of now, just to stay safe.
01:59 See from my administration, I think certainly there was an advisory, all the schools were
02:02 closed.
02:03 So my kid, he was doing his classes online.
02:07 From our office, there was an advisory that we need to use our own precautions and see
02:11 if it's quiet, we come to office.
02:13 Otherwise it's fine.
02:14 But I did go to office.
