Haryana Rolling Mills, Bhilai

Haryana Rolling Mills is located in Bhilai, but the address is a bit specific because it involves the Railway Colony in Durg. You have to look for Quarter Number 46/4. It is actually care of Shri S.K. Raju, who is a co-brother to one of the main guys here. This makes it feel more like a family connection than just a business address. Being near the South East Central Railway area means we hear the trains going by all the time. It is a rhythmic sound that you eventually stop noticing. The work we do involves rolling mills, so it is heavy, industrial, and often quite hot. The ground is dark with iron dust and the machinery is big and loud. We do not have a polished office with air conditioning; we mostly work in the middle of the noise. It is a gritty environment where people work with their hands and wear sturdy boots. We have our own ways of getting things done that might seem a bit disorganized to an outsider, but it works for us. There is a sense of community here because many of us live nearby or have family in the railway service. We take our breaks in the shade when we can find it. It is honest work in a part of the country that is built on steel and railways. We just keep the mills turning.
