Chandrapal Singh Eat Udyog

Out here in Village Mieaun, things move at a different pace. Our place, Chandrapal Singh Eat Udyog, is located right off the Dataganj Road. If you are coming from the Allapur police station, you won't miss us. It’s a quiet area for the most part, except for the tractors going back and forth. We’ve been working this land for a long time. The soil here is good for making bricks. We spend our mornings checking the kilns and making sure everything is drying right. It’s a lot of manual labor. My family helps out, and we have a few guys from the village who come in every day. We don’t have any fancy signs or big advertisements. Most people just know where we are because they pass by on their way to the Tehsil office in Dataganj. The road can get a bit bumpy after the rain, which makes loading the trucks a bit of a headache. But we manage. We just keep our heads down and do the work. The yard is usually full of smoke and the smell of burning wood. It's not a clean job, but it pays the bills. We sit outside mostly, drinking tea and waiting for the next load to be ready. It’s honest work. We don’t try to be something we aren't. Just a local brick field on the edge of the village, doing what we know how to do. We just keep stacking them up until the day ends.
