India Today exposes how LPG black marketing thrives in Delhi amid West Asia war

An India Today Special Investigation Team exposed how LPG cylinders are being hoarded and sold in the black market across Delhi at up to five times the normal price, amid shortages caused by the ongoing Gulf war. At a shop near Alipur Police Station, an agent sold a cylinder for Rs 4,500, nearly five times the regular price, and even weighed it to make the illegal transaction appear legitimate. While in Maujpur, shop owners agreed to arrange cylinders illegally for Rs 3,400.
