LPG shortage cripples Hyderabad bangle industry
Hyderabad's bangle industry is suffering due to a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) shortage, with production losses and incomplete home-based processes like 'jooraee' and 'sadai'. A recent crackdown on illegal LPG sales following a deadly accident in May 2024 exacerbated the crisis, driving up prices and disrupting the livelihoods of workers in slum areas.
