I haven't eaten for 10 days —then he broke down in tears. Migrant workers are leaving Delhi amidst a gas shortage: A Ground Report.

Full report: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93ZmU1q5J4s

Delhi’s skyline still glitters. The illusion of stability remains intact. But at Anand Vihar, that illusion collapses. This is not a lockdown. This is not a natural disaster. Yet, thousands are leaving. Not because there is no work. Not because there is no money. But because there is no fire to cook food. A cooking gas shortage has triggered something far deeper than inconvenience — it has exposed a systemic fracture where survival itself is now unaffordable. The hands that built this city are now walking away

Which raises a fundamental question:

If supply exists —

why are people leaving

This is not just a gas crisis.

It is a last-mile governance failure —

where access, not availability, determines survival.

A capital that cannot deliver basic fuel to its workforce

is not facing a shortage of resources —

It is facing a breakdown of execution
