The 14-storied building, located in Howrah, will undergo an intense cleaning and sanitisation process on these two days, the official said on Friday 'Nabanna' is regularly sanitised as a part of the protocol ever since the first case of COVID-19 was detected in March, officials said.

Though the secretariat functions with 50 per cent workforce on alternate days, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee attends office every day, barring notified holidays and those declared total lockdown.
