Sri Mata Nirmal General Store

If you are looking for Sri Mata Nirmal General Store, we are right across from Sahu Palace in Ranchi. We are near the Nirankari Bhawan in Puran Vihar. It is a good spot in the Argora area. The shop stays quite busy because people use the road a lot. I usually start the day by checking the inventory. We have to keep an eye on the stock because it runs out faster than you would think. The shelves are packed with everything from soap to big bags of rice. We get a lot of people from the nearby houses in 834002. They come in for their daily supplies. Sometimes they forget their wallets and we have to write it down in the ledger. That’s just how it works in a local place like this. The view out the front door is mostly traffic and the gate of Sahu Palace. When the monsoon comes, the rain splashes right up to the doorstep. We have to move everything back so it stays dry. It gets a bit crowded inside when it rains because people stand under our awning to wait it out. We don't mind. It gives us a chance to talk. Running a store like this takes a lot of patience. You are always counting change and lifting heavy crates. By the end of the day, I am tired, but it’s good to be part of the neighborhood.
