Ramchet owns an old chappal repair shop in Sultanpur, Uttar Pradesh. People are currently willing to pay lakhs of rupees for the shoes and boots hanging in this shop. Shop owner Ramchet is getting new offers every day. But Ramchet is not ready to sell these shoes and boots. Its reason is also special. Leader of Congress and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi visited this shop a few days ago. On July 26, Rahul Gandhi appeared in Sultanpur court for a case. This time he spent some time at Ramchet’s shop on the road. In this shop he also repaired slippers and shoes belonging to Ramchet. Many people are willing to buy these slippers and shoes.
When Rahul Gandhi came to Sultanpur court, he stopped at Ramchet’s shop and interacted with him. Asked how much money is earned from this business. He also practiced doing this work himself. Photos and videos of Rahul Gandhi repairing slippers by himself have also gone viral. The day after Rahul Gandhi left, Ramchet was gifted a machine for sewing chappals and boots. This machine will make Ramchet’s work even easier.
Talking to the media, Ramchet said that his life has changed since he met Rahul Gandhi. People are stopping their cars in front of my shop. Trying to talk to me. They are curious. People are respecting me, it’s nice.
Ramchet added, “Some people called me for slippers and shoes repaired by Rahul Gandhi. They are ready to pay up to 10 lakhs for this shoe. Some started with 5 lakhs and said to give 10 lakhs. One even said that he would pay by filling a bag. But I rejected all the offers. I don’t want to sell these slippers and boots.” When the media asked the reason for this, he jokingly said that Rahul Gandhi is now my business partner. We are doing business together.
Ramchet added that I will not return these shoes and boots to those who gave them to me for repair. I will offer them money in return.
What was discussed with Rahul Gandhi? When asked this question, he said, Rahul Gandhi came to know about my work. They also repaired some shoes after I pointed them out. I told them that there is no electricity in my shop. After Rahul Gandhi came and left, now the system people are coming to my shop and asking me what is my problem. But no one asked me before.
