TV people show just anything they want. Seeing yesterday's episode confirms that Narender is really dumb. Nobody will behave in real life like he did. Even if he felt guilty, the weeping part is OTT, instead he could have gone to the DC and apologised.
Collector's office or school gates - nowhere a trace of security. Government offices have round the clock security and if the DC was in office late at night, his staff, at least his personal staff and few senior officers must be present in office (a DC's office is not a small office with just 5-6 staff members as shown in serial. The office actually contains a number of sections). TV people will show ridiculous situations - this is not the first time - during Gahna's delivery, only one trained nurse and Ganga were there - hospitals are never left like this. Even if there is emergency somewhere, a small medical party is sent and most of the staff remains in hospital.
I visited Tehsildar's office couple of times and it is much bigger and with more staff and so many partitions than this Collector's office.
