  • Ep41: Lockdown Day 1
    In this episode we are trying something new and recording the podcast through our phones.

    2020 began with the Sikkimese rushing to get their bluebooks updated and while a lot has happened in the first fortnight of the new year, in this episode we discuss the Motor Vehicle's road safety awareness and enforcement drive and the cancellation of five-day week for government employees.

    Not the best of beginnings for everyone, but let's hope for brighter days ahead this new year.
