Mahadev Krishi Kendra

We are Mahadev Krishi Kendra, located at 17 near the Patparganj Depot in Indirapuram. Being so close to the bus depot means there’s always a smell of diesel in the air and the sound of engines starting up. It’s a busy corner of Indirapuram, and our shop at 17 has been here through a lot of changes in the neighborhood. We don’t have any big glass windows or fancy air conditioning. It’s a simple shop with a concrete floor and shelves that we built ourselves. We spend our days waiting for the farmers or the locals to come in. Most of our time is spent just chatting about the weather or how the crops are doing. We don’t do any online selling or social media stuff. We just talk to the people who walk through the door. Sometimes the shop gets a bit crowded and people have to wait outside, but nobody seems to mind too much. We know most of the bus drivers who stop at the depot, and they often come by for a drink of water. It’s a plain, honest way to make a living. We don't have any corporate goals or anything like that. We just want to be here tomorrow, doing the same thing we did today. It’s a steady life and we’re quite alright with that. Our spot near the depot is home to us now.
