Modern Insulators Ltd

Living and working out here at Abu Road is different from being in a big city. We’re based in the Modern Officers Colony, right near the plant in Talheti. It’s a bit isolated, but you get used to the quiet and the view of the hills. The colony itself is where most of the staff stays. It’s a small community. We see each other at work and then again in the evenings. The factory produces insulators, so there’s a lot of technical stuff going on, but our daily life is pretty grounded. It’s dusty and hot because we’re in Rajasthan, after all. We spend a lot of time checking gauges and making sure the production line doesn't hit any snags. It’s not a glamorous job. There’s a lot of routine. Walk to the site, do the shift, maybe deal with a machine that's acting up, and then head back to the colony. Sometimes we have visitors from the head office, and things get a bit more formal, but mostly it's just us. We don't have many shops nearby, so we have to plan things out. The air is better here than in the cities, even with the factory smoke. We’ve been here for years, and the place feels like home now. It’s just a group of people making parts for the power grid and living their lives. We take the bus into town when we need supplies or just a change of scenery.
