Alamgir Ansari

This is where I run things, right here in Rahmatganj. It’s a quiet enough spot in Dhanbad, near the Polytechnic area. I’ve been living in Jharkhand my whole life, so when I decided to start Alamgir Ansari, I didn't see any reason to go anywhere else. The address is easy to find if you know where the post office is. It’s not a large operation. Just a simple room where I spend most of my day. I usually start early in the morning before it gets too hot outside. The neighborhood is mostly families and some small shops, so it’s pretty grounded. I handle most of the work myself, though sometimes my cousins help out when there's a lot to do. We don't have a big sign or anything flashy. People just know me by name around here. It’s been a few years now and things are steady. I like the routine of it. I wake up, walk over, and start on whatever needs doing for the day. Sometimes the mail takes a while to get here because of the location, but we manage just fine. There’s a tea stall nearby where I take my breaks. It’s a basic life but I’m okay with it. Working for yourself has its ups and downs, especially with the paperwork, but I prefer it this way. Just keeping things moving one day at a time in 828130. I hope to keep it going for many more years.
