Yashwant K Mehta

Our office is right on the Main Road in Ankur Society. It’s a convenient spot because people can see us as they walk by to the market. Yashwant K Mehta has been operating out of this room for quite some time now. It’s a small space, mostly filled with desks and tall stacks of files that probably need to be sorted. The fan on the ceiling makes a clicking noise that we’ve just gotten used to over the months. On Mondays, the street outside is especially loud with the vegetable sellers and the traffic. We usually keep the door open a crack to let some air in, though it brings in the dust too. There is a small sink in the back where we wash our cups. Most of the neighbors in Ankur Society know us by sight. It’s not a fancy corporate setup, just a place where we sit and handle our paperwork and talk to whoever drops by. Sometimes the internet goes out when it rains heavily, so we just take a break until it comes back. We use old wooden chairs that are surprisingly comfortable if you sit the right way. There’s a calendar on the wall from three years ago that nobody bothered to take down. It’s just a normal workplace. We get in early, do what needs to be done, and head home when the sun starts to go down. We like the neighborhood for its quiet evenings mostly.
