RGCB worked to knock down
the lockdown!
Over the last few weeks we have all been
overpowered with what is happening all around
the world on Covid-19. The world has changed
ever since Covid-19 started unleashing its lethal
power. The way we live, work, eat, socialize, etc.
have changed and have given new dimension
to our life. Our hearts go out to everyone who
has been impacted by the virus either directly or
indirectly. We also salute those at the front line,
medical staff and care givers who put themselves
at risk to do all it takes to serve others.
In much the same way, we at RGCB are doing
our bit to fight against this deadly virus using
our expertise and knowledge gained over the
past three decades to offer solutions and keep
everyone safe. Towards this, I want to share some
of the things done by my very enterprising team at
RGCB, over the past few weeks when the country
and RGCB were locked down
