Anyone receiving updates on their applications during strike ?

Hey guys, I applied for SDS visa on 7 April 2023 and my bio was done on 14 April. Since then I do not receive any single update on my application. I was planning to book tickets as all people who opted for a similar program like mine, get their visas within 5-15 days, people who applied at the start of the month. My course starting date is 15 May 2023. I want to know if people are getting updates on their applications during this strike. How much time should I consider?
For reference, I applied from India, my medicals aren't even updated. It just shows my biometrics was completed on 14 April. And since then no update

No don't book them until you pass all stages. Other stages like security, screening, crimality comes after medical.

I'm in the same boat as you. Applied for non SDS on 6th April, biometrics done on 13th April- medicals done in March but still not updated. And no update since 13th.
