N M Palanivelu

N M Palanivelu is based right here in Coimbatore. There isn't a long address to give, just the city itself where we’ve been rooted for a long time. Coimbatore is a hub of activity, and we are just one small part of it. The office is located in a busy street where you can always hear the sound of motorcycles and vendors. We don't have a big team. It’s usually just Palanivelu and one or two other guys who drop in to help. The space is a bit cramped because we have so many boxes and papers everywhere. We probably should clean it out, but we always find something more important to do. It’s a very local operation. We know the tea seller at the corner and the guy who fixes the shoes. That’s how business is done here. We don't use any fancy English or wear suits. Most days it’s just cotton shirts and a lot of sweat. We do what we can to help the people who walk through the door. Sometimes we stay late when there’s a lot of work, but usually, we head home by six. It’s a basic life, and we don't ask for much more. The city keeps growing around us, but we stay the same. We like the familiarity of our small corner in this big place. I guess that's all there is to say about us. We are just here.
