Ellahi Vending Zone: Making Friends!

Elahi Vending Zone, located near the Unit 2 Petrol Pump is famous for bed sheets. Just opposite the flyover this relatively small vending zone is predominantly made up of migrants from all over east India.

The population is mostly Muslim and conservative, but the vendors were co-operative and patiently answered all our questions. They opened up to us and shared their problems and concerns with us.

We came away with a feeling of warmth and great appreciation for these wonderful gentlemen who didn't posses much by way of material wealth but still managed to look at the world optimistically.
