Damodar Ropeways & Construction Co.(P)Ltd,Kolkata

Our place is out in Vill-Bhangagara, near Deulpota. It is a bit of a drive to get out here in Purba Medinipore, but it’s where we set things up for the ropeway work. The office is pretty simple, just a small building where we manage the construction stuff and the local projects. We have been in this part of West Bengal for quite a bit. It’s quieter than the city, which is nice when you’re trying to look over site plans without being interrupted. We have a lot of local guys working with us and they know the area well. Most mornings start with a quick check on the equipment and seeing who is heading out to which site for the day. The dust gets everywhere since we are always dealing with building materials and trucks. We don't have a big reception or any fancy furniture. You just walk in and someone will be sitting at a desk covered in notes and old coffee mugs. We focus on the practical side of things, like how to get the heavy cables moved or where the next project is starting. Sometimes the weather makes things tough, especially when it rains heavy in the monsoon and the roads get muddy. We just keep the site running as best we can. It’s not a glamorous life, just plenty of dirt and hard work every day. People in Mahishadal know where we are if they need to drop something off. We just try to stay busy and get the jobs done.
