Gobind General Store

Gobind General Store is my small business here in Kankarbagh. I started this place because I wanted to work for myself and serve the local people in this part of Patna. We carry all the usual things you’d expect to find in a neighborhood kirana store. Things like spices, biscuits, cleaning supplies, and some stationary too. It’s a quiet life mostly, just talking to neighbors and making sure we don’t run out of the popular brands of tea or cooking oil. The 800020 area has grown so much lately, with new apartments coming up everywhere. This means more customers, but also more work to keep up with what everyone wants these days. I keep the shop open seven days a week because people need stuff even on Sundays. My kids sometimes come by after school to help me arrange the packets on the higher shelves where I can’t reach easily anymore. We don’t have a website or anything like that, just the physical shop where you can walk in and pick what you need. It’s a simple setup. I know most of my customers by their faces, and we often chat about the weather or the local news while I bag their groceries. It’s not a glamorous job, but it’s honest work and it pays the bills. If you’re around Kankarbagh and need a loaf of bread or some sugar, you’ll find us here. We keep it simple.
