HB Chhetri worked as a clerk in the Panighatta tea factory for more than 36 years. When he joined the factory, which was started in 1820, his family thought he had struck gold. At the end of his service, Chhetri has been reduced being the custodian of an “abandoned” factory where 15,000 kilograms of tea leaves - processed and un-processed - are lying unused.
