Sole Searching: How Rahul Gandhi Inspired a Cobbler's Dream

Ramchet, who is a Uttar Pradesh-based cobbler, is going to start his own shoe brand 'Ramchet Mochi', which is being inspired by Rahul Gandhi's gesture of support towards him. Post meeting Gandhi, Ramchet came in contact with Sudheer Rajbhar, a major leather businessman, which gave an immense boost to his entrepreneurial aspirations. Ramchet's business now has grown larger, and today he earns thousands every month, a huge spike from his daily earnings of Rs 100-150 earlier. He has also installed a machine in a rented premise, where he makes shoes with the assistance of artisans. Ramchet's son is being trained in the business, ensuring his legacy continues.
