“I am 57 years old, and I am proud to be a coal mine worker. I have lived in the coal region throughout my life and thirty-six of these years have been spent working in and around the Singareni.

I took up the work in the Ellandu coal mine region initially. I started my career in the floating pillar category in the room and pillar mining.
With the experience, we were taken on as workers, where we served in the drilling and blasting departments until we were able to call ourselves miners. Today, I serve as a Mining Sirdar here.

I am only one of the thousands of workers you see here at the Singareni Collieries. Our daily life is not a pleasant one. Even then, we are determined to serve our nation with pride. 

In the last three and half decades of my career,  I have seen many highs and lows but what I am proud of is the spirit of our worker’s union who are always on the go despite the extreme conditions! This work is not for everyone – it’s for the few who dare to descend into the bowels of the earth to extract the energy-rich black gold.”
