What you will see
Sīkar is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 16:29:26 local time, the Moon hides 12% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 15:48:57 and ends at 17:07:41, 1 h 19 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 36° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Sīkar.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 2,971 km south-west of Sīkar.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is El Dibir, about 3,051 km south-west, where totality lasts 3 m 26 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
