Ram Niwas Om Babu

We are located at Shop No. A-1 in the New Galla Mandi here in Budaun. Working in a grain market means our day starts very early, often before the sun is even up. Ram Niwas Om Babu has been a name in this market for quite a long time. It’s a place where there is a lot of dust, noise, and tractors moving around constantly. We deal with the local farmers and traders who bring their produce in from the surrounding countryside. It’s a lot of bargaining and checking the quality of the crops. Our shop isn't anything special to look at, just a sturdy place to store bags and keep our records. We don't use fancy computers for everything; a lot of it is still done with pen and paper because it's faster when things get busy. The air always smells like wheat or mustard, depending on the season. It’s a hard life, and your clothes are usually covered in dust by noon, but it feels good to be part of the food chain. We aren't ones for making empty promises. We just do the work, weigh the bags, and make sure everyone gets paid what was agreed. Sometimes the market prices go up and down like crazy, which keeps us stressed, but we've learned to take it as it comes. It's just how the Mandi works.
