Dear @RiadJL, @Wilfredo Perez, @Andrew John Melvill, @Sandeep Nayar, @DTG and @Abhilash Kottakkal, just to clarify any doubt, today's PM drive IS  CANCELLED.

I have waited as much as possible before cancelling, but just the length of the drive itself makes it too dangerous to carry it out on surely damaged and uncertain terrain.

Most of all I wish you all and your families are safe and have sustained no damages to your health or your properties.

See you out there at the earliest opportunity. Stay safe!!
