Telangana Expands Sand Bazaars to Curb Illegal Mining

The Telangana government wants to stop people from illegally mining sand.

They are making more places called sand bazaars where people can buy sand at a fair price.

This way, people won't have to buy sand from illegal sellers who charge too much.

You can book sand online from January 8 to January 18 for the rainy season from June to October 2026.

The government is also setting up new places to store sand near Hyderabad so there's enough for everyone.

This will help keep the sand market fair and stop illegal sand transport.
