Rashmi Roadlines

Down here at 3, Jai Ambe Chambers in Gandhidham, life revolves around the trucks and the port. Rashmi Roadlines has been based in Sector 9/a for a long time now. If you know this part of Kachchh, you know it’s all about moving goods from one place to another. Our office on Plot No 28 is usually full of drivers coming in with their papers or guys checking on where the loads are. It’s a dusty area and the sun can be really brutal, but that’s just how it is in this part of Gujarat. We don't have any polished lobby or anything like that. It’s just desks, a few chairs, and a lot of phone calls. Moving things across the state takes a lot of coordination and sometimes things don’t go as planned, like a tire blowing out or a delay at the check post. We just deal with those things as they come. Most of us have been working together for years, so we know the routes pretty well. We aren't trying to be the biggest company out there, just a reliable one that gets the job done without too much fuss. Every morning starts early with the sound of engines and the smell of tea from the stall nearby. It’s honest work and it keeps us busy from dawn till well after dark. We don't mind the long hours because there's always something to do and people counting on us to deliver.
