Ajay Maheshwari

My name is Ajay Maheshwari and I run things here in Sojat. My place is in Maheshwari Mohhala, which is right near the vegetable market, the Sbji Mandi. It’s a busy spot with people coming and going all day long. Having lived and worked in this area for a long time, I've seen a lot of changes. People know me and they know where to find me if they need something. I don't have a big staff or a fancy corporate office. Usually, it is just me and a couple of helpers. We do a bit of everything, whatever needs doing that day. Because we are near the mandi, there is always noise and activity outside the door. I like being in the middle of it. It feels like the heart of the town. My workspace is filled with ledgers and things I’ve collected over the years. To someone else, it might look a bit cluttered, but it makes sense to me. Most of my time is spent talking to locals and handling whatever business comes my way. It’s not a complicated life. Being helpful is what I try to do, and I hope people think I'm a good neighbor. If you are walking through Sojat and you pass the vegetable market, you are pretty much at my doorstep. You can find me around, either working at my desk or talking to someone out front. This simple business keeps me connected to my community.
