Rakesh Provisional Store

My name is Rakesh and I run this provisional store at Shop No 12/33 on Gurudwara Road. It is a simple place here in Agra where people come to buy their monthly rations. I have been here for a while, and the shop has seen many changes on this road. We carry all the usual stuff like flour, rice, different kinds of lentils, and household cleaners. The shop isn't very large, so we have to stack things up high to make everything fit. It can be a bit tricky finding things sometimes, but I usually know exactly where every packet is hidden. Being on Gurudwara Road means we see a lot of people passing by on their way to the temple or their homes nearby. I open up early and usually stay until late evening. My days are filled with weighing out items and packing them into bags for the customers. I don't use any fancy computers, just a notebook to keep track of the daily sales. Sometimes the power goes out, and we have to manage with a small torch or candle for a bit. It is just a normal life running a small business in a busy city. I try to keep the prices fair so that the neighbors keep coming back. There isn't much to it other than hard work and making sure I have what people are looking for. It is just a regular corner shop for the local community. I also keep some extra items that people might need suddenly.
