Aanchal Iti Institute

We are over here at Imli Phatak, right in that 73A spot in Janakpuri 1st near Tonk Road. It’s a busy area and we spend most of our days in the workshop. If you walk by, you’ll probably hear the machines running or see students gathered around some equipment. We started this place because people around here needed a spot to actually learn how to work with their hands. It isn’t some fancy office with glass walls. It’s a place where things get a bit dusty and greasy because that is how you learn. We’ve got different rooms for different trades. Some days it is quiet when everyone is doing their theory, but mostly it's pretty loud with all the practical work going on. The building has been here for a while and we know most of the neighbors on Tonk Road. We keep the doors open from early morning. It’s a lot of work keeping up with all the tools and making sure everything works right for the next batch. Sometimes the fans make too much noise, but we just get on with it. Students come from all over this part of the city. We don't spend much time on decorations or anything like that. We just focus on the machines and the benches. It is just a normal school where people show up, do the work, and then head home. That is pretty much how we spend our time here.
