Pankaj Electricals

Pankaj Electricals is located at B-276 on the Chittaranjan Park Main Road. It’s a place where we keep a lot of things shoved into corners. You’ll see coils of wire, boxes of light bulbs, and different kinds of switches stacked up high. I know where everything is, even if it looks like a bit of a mess to anyone else. The shop has been here at B-276 for years. We get a lot of people from the neighborhood who need a quick fix for something at home. Maybe a socket stopped working or they need a new tube light. I spend a lot of time on a rickety wooden ladder reaching for items on the top shelves. My hands are usually a bit gray from the dust that settles on the boxes. The main road is always noisy with traffic, and sometimes the smell of street food drifts in. We don't have a fancy display or bright neon signs. Just the stuff people need for their houses. Sometimes we sit out front on a plastic chair when the shop is empty. We talk to the other shopkeepers about how the day is going. It's a very normal life. We don't use a computer for our billing, we just write it down in a book. It works fine for us. Sometimes we stay open a bit later if a neighbor has an electrical emergency. It's just part of being here.
