At present, there is indefinite economic blockade going on called by the United Naga Council on National Highways, which has sky rocketed the prices of all daily items. This blockade left the people living in the state in a harsh condition, thereby creating an issue of scarcity of petroleum products and most of the imported food items. At this very moment, they were trying to mix the kerosene to get some extra profit during this wee hours.
