Maharishi Khadi

Maharishi Khadi is located in Indra Bhawan. Our unit is C/5. We are right in the Maharishi Nagar area, not too far from Salarpur. It's a quiet enough spot compared to the main roads. We deal in khadi products, mostly clothes and textiles. The material is kept in stacks along the walls. It has that specific smell of fresh fabric that you only get with real khadi. We aren't a big corporation. It's just a few of us working here every day. We handle the cutting and the packing ourselves. Sometimes the deliveries are late because of the traffic near Salarpur, but we don't let it bother us too much. We just do the work as it comes. The building is an older style, but it stays relatively cool inside. We don't spend money on fancy decorations or expensive signs. People who need khadi know where to find us. We’ve had the same sign out front for years. It’s a bit faded now from the sun. We talk to the local residents who stop by to see what's new. It’s a very hands-on kind of place. We spend a lot of time checking the quality of the weave. If something isn't right, we just set it aside. There’s no big manual on how we do things. We just learned by doing it over the years. It feels more like a workshop than a store, which is how we like it.
