Geli Auto (India)

Our office is in the Truck Association Building, number 19, right in the heart of Transport Nagar. If you know Gandhidham, you know this part of town is always moving with big vehicles and cargo. We are right opposite Hotel Gokul, so it’s easy to grab a bite during lunch when we have the time. Geli Auto (India) is what we call our operation. It’s a lot of paperwork and talking to drivers all day long. The building is older and has that specific smell of dust and diesel from the trucks outside. We have a few desks and some filing cabinets that have seen better days. It’s not a quiet place at all. There is always a truck idling nearby or someone shouting across the yard to get someone’s attention. In Kachchh, the weather gets really hot, so we have a small cooler that struggles to keep up with the heat in the middle of the day. We don't do anything fancy here. We just coordinate things and make sure the logs are updated correctly. Most of us have been in the transport world for our whole lives. It’s a tough business but it’s what we know. We don't have a fancy lobby with chairs for people to relax in. Usually, people just stand by the counter and wait their turn while we finish up a phone call. We try to be quick so they can get back on the road and get to their destination. It’s a basic setup but it works for the work we do.
