As tensions in West Asia threaten global oil supplies, Prime Minister Narendra Modi calls for economic caution and lifestyle changes to help India weather potential shocks.
With tensions escalating in West Asia and fears growing over disruptions in global oil supplies, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday urged Indians to reduce fuel consumption, avoid unnecessary foreign travel and postpone buying gold for a year, warning that the ongoing geopolitical crisis could have a direct impact on India’s economy.
Addressing a public rally in Hyderabad after inaugurating development projects worth nearly ₹9,400 crore, Modi said the ongoing conflict in West Asia could impact India through rising fuel prices, supply chain disruptions and increased import costs.
“The need of the hour is to use petrol, diesel and gas with great restraint,” Modi said, urging citizens to reduce unnecessary fuel consumption.
