“Can I give my jury little earlier? I have to catch a train from LTT at 3.00.”

I have been using these same sentences for the last 3 years on the day before Ganesh Chaturthi. This year it was almost confirmed that I am going to be here (at home) before and even after chaturthi since June only, but being a typical architecture student I started making this sajavat on the day before chaturthi and finished it around 4.30 a.m. just before Ganesha’s arrival and slept just below it as I always do at college after submissions. That one extra night that COVID -19 has provided me became a reason of happiness for so many people including me.
