M/S Mascot Construction; Patna

You can find us over at Ekanger Sarai in the Nalanda district. It’s quite a way out from the main city of Patna. The office is actually part of Dr. Rajendra Prasad’s place. It’s a quiet spot, really. We do construction work around the local villages and towns. It’s not like those big city firms. We know the people here and we know the land. Sometimes the materials take a bit longer to arrive because of the roads, but we make it work. We use simple tools and a small crew of locals. My father started this and now I’m looking after things. We don't have a website or anything like that. Most people just walk in or call us. The weather in Bihar can be tough for building, especially when the rains start. We have to plan everything around that. Mascot Construction is just a small name for a group of us trying to build decent structures for our neighbors. It’s honest work and keeps us busy. We don’t do big advertisements. Word of mouth is enough for us in Ekanger Sarai. We’re just regular folks building things for other regular folks. Sometimes we sit outside under the tree to discuss the day's tasks. It's a humble way to earn a living, but it suits us just fine.
