Distant War Hits India Hard As LPG Crisis, Job Losses And Migration Surge Across Cities

A distant war is now hitting home in India, triggering an unexpected crisis. In cities like Mumbai and across Rajasthan, LPG shortages and soaring prices are disrupting daily life. Cylinders that once cost under ₹1,000 are now selling for up to ₹3,000 in the black market, with no guarantee of supply. The impact is visible at railway stations, where migrant workers are leaving cities after losing jobs. As supply chains strain under global tensions, ordinary Indians are bearing the brunt. From empty kitchens to mass departures, the ripple effects of war are unfolding on India’s streets.
