Shraddha Kirana & General Stores

The shop is right here on Old Bhandara Road in the Bagadganj area of Nagpur. We are at Plot No 11, which isn't hard to find if you know where Ganga Bai Ghat Square is. It gets quite busy around here with the traffic and people moving about their day. Every morning starts about the same, unlocking the heavy shutters and sweeping the dust off the front step before the first few customers show up. Shraddha Kirana & General Stores has been sitting in this spot for a bit now. We mostly just keep the shelves stocked with whatever people in Bagadganj need for their kitchens or houses. It’s a lot of lifting sacks and stacking boxes of tea or soap. Sometimes it gets a bit cramped inside when the new stock arrives, but we manage to find a place for everything eventually. The fan hums in the corner all day, especially when the Nagpur heat starts picking up in the afternoon. People stop by on their way home from work or while they are out running errands near the square. It’s not a fancy place, just a regular store where we know most of the faces that walk through the door. We don't have a big team or anything, just a few of us making sure things are in order. Living and working around Plot No 11 feels normal, just part of the local routine here on the road.
