The outer chamber of the Ratna Bhandar was opened first and all the ornaments of the deities were completely shifted to the temporary strong room. Then the door of the inner Ratna Bhandar was opened by breaking the three locks by following the SOP. 

However, the shifting of valuables to the temporary strong room couldn't be done due to shortage of time. It will be done on another day after 'Bahuda Yatra'.
