Hello @kostiantyn-shai
The issue is on Router1 interfaces.
You cannot configured IP ADD on sub-interfaces Fa0/1.10 (dot1q 10) and Fa0/1.20 (dot1q 20) since Fa0/0.10 and Fa0/0.20 has got one ! You have an overlap warning if you do that. Router cannot have same subnet on different interfaces.
So review the topology. Don't connect Switch1 to Router1, but connect Switch1 to Switch0 with a Trunk port. After that, PCs attached to Switch1 should have connectivty to their respective Gateway hosted on Router1 (througth Fa0/0.10 Fa0/0.20 etc ....)

Hi @kostiantyn-shai,
If you wish to share a topology diagram (prtscrn from PT is fine) and running-config of each node then I personally would be happy to help you with some pointers of what to look out for and suggest next steps. I don't have PT on at the moment. I'll not give the answers directly though!
