Hamdard Education Society

We are based out of the Talimabad Complex on Ratia Marg. It’s in the Sangam Vihar area of New Delhi, 110 062. The complex is quite a big place, and we are at number 25. It’s a busy road outside, lots of traffic and people going about their business. Inside the complex, it’s a bit more structured. We spend our days here dealing with all the stuff that comes with running a society like this. The rooms are basic, just desks and cupboards full of papers. We don't really have any flashy decorations or anything like that. It’s a functional space. People come in and out all day. Sometimes it gets a bit chaotic when there’s a lot to do. We’ve been in Sangam Vihar for a long time. The neighborhood is very packed, so there’s always something happening right outside the gate. We just try to keep things organized. The complex has a few trees that give some shade during the hottest parts of the day. We sometimes sit outside for a few minutes just to get some air. The files in our office are stacked pretty high on the shelves. It’s a lot of paperwork to keep track of, but we manage to find what we need eventually. We don't have a dedicated cleaning crew, so we just tidy up our own desks. It’s a very simple way of doing things. We’ve been here so long that the building feels like a second home to most of us. We know all the shortcuts through the neighborhood now. We just show up and do the work that’s needed.
