Anuj Telecom has been sitting here in Dadri for a while now, and not much has changed over the years. The shop is a simple place where the main thing we do is help people with their phone connections and recharges. Dadri is a place where everyone seems to know everyone else, so a lot of the day is just greeting people who walk past the entrance. We have a desk at the back where the paperwork gets done, mostly for new SIM cards or verifying documents. It gets a bit messy with all the registers and the different forms scattered around. The walls are painted a light blue that is starting to peel in the corners. We keep a stock of basic keypad phones because they are still popular with the older crowd here. There is always a stack of scratch cards and some spare batteries in the drawer. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to rely on the natural light coming through the door until the generator kicks in somewhere down the street. It’s a quiet kind of work most of the time, unless there’s a big cricket match on and everyone stops by to check the score on the small TV we keep in the corner. We don't have any big signs or bright lights, just the name written above the door so people know where to find us. It feels like home after being here so many hours every day.
