Jamshedpur LPG Crisis: Officials Crack Down on Hoarding and Black Marketing Amidst Supply Shortage

Authorities in Jamshedpur are conducting surprise checks on LPG booking centres and godowns to combat hoarding and black marketing amidst a West Asian conflict-induced crisis. Officials inspected stock, distribution, and safety measures, sealing one shop for unauthorized refilling. Despite efforts, a backlog of 50,000 cylinders remains, with domestic supply largely normal but commercial customers facing delays.
