Raj Shri General Store

Raj Shri General Store is a small spot on Kaveri Path. We are at number 12/47 here in Mansarovar, Jaipur. It’s a quiet enough street most of the time, though it picks up when people are heading home from work. This store is pretty much what you’d expect from a general store in a residential neighborhood. We carry the basics—soap, snacks, some dry goods, and things like that. I’ve lived in Jaipur for years, so setting up shop here felt right. It’s not a huge space, so things can get a little cramped if three or four people are inside at once. I try to keep the windows clean, but the dust from the road is a never-ending battle. I’m usually the one behind the counter from morning until late at night. There isn't a fancy website or a big sign, just the name above the door. If someone needs something we don’t have, I usually try to get it for them by the next week. It’s a slow and steady kind of business. We don't have many employees, just me and occasionally a friend who steps in so I can grab lunch. It’s a simple life running a shop like this. People in Mansarovar are decent, and we get along well with the folks living on this block. We just keep our heads down and serve whoever walks through the door without making a big fuss.
