LPG crunch forcing workers in Surat to head home to Ganjam

Hundreds of migrant workers are returning to Ganjam from Surat. The ongoing LPG crisis in Surat has forced many to leave early. Non-availability of cooking gas and high prices are key reasons. Reduced production in textile units also contributes to the exodus. Workers from various states are affected. Those with domestic LPG connections face longer waiting times for cylinders.
