Asst. Engineer

Out here in Malda, things move a bit slower than in the big cities. I’m the Asst. Engineer working from the Khejuriya New Colony. The post office is Pubarun and the pin code is 732215. West Bengal has a very specific feel, especially in these colony areas where everyone knows their neighbors. My office is basically just a small room in the village where I keep my records and drafting tools. It’s not a fancy setup at all. Most of the time, I’m dealing with local infrastructure or small construction projects that need a bit of technical oversight. The New Colony is a quiet place, mostly residential, so I don't have to deal with too much noise while I’m working. During the monsoon, the rain hits the roof so loud I can barely think, but that’s just how it is in Malda. I don't have a website or a marketing team. People usually find me by word of mouth or by just coming to the door. It’s a very practical existence. I focus on making sure the measurements are right and the materials are what they should be. I’ve been in this part of West Bengal for a long time, and I understand how things get built around here. It’s about being reliable and doing the engineering work without making a big fuss about it. It’s just me and my work.
