Saili Bapat

Saili Bapat runs things here in Hyderguda. We are right next to the Masjid-E-Noor Mohammadi. If you know the old MLA quarters, then you know exactly where we are. It’s a busy part of Hyderabad. Most days, the street is full of people going about their business. We’ve been at this address, number 14, for quite some time now. It isn't a fancy office with big glass windows or anything like that. It’s just a practical space where the work gets done. Sometimes the traffic outside gets a bit much, especially in the evenings when everyone is heading home. Mohammad Zubair handles a lot of the day-to-day stuff here. We don't really go for big announcements or anything. We just open up the doors and start the day. There’s a bit of a routine we’ve fallen into over the years. You get to know the neighbors and the people who walk past every morning. Hyderabad is changing fast, but this little corner of Hyderguda feels pretty much the same as it always has. We keep our files organized, answer the phone when it rings, and try to stay on top of the list for the day. It’s just honest work in a familiar place. If you are looking for us, look for the mosque and the old quarters, and you’ll find the door soon enough. There’s no big sign or flashing lights, just the address on the wall.
