Did PM Modi address concerns?

Earlier on March 12, PM Modi urged citizens not to panic over potential fuel supply concerns linked to the ongoing conflict in West Asia and further said that the government is closely monitoring the situation.

“The conflict in West Asia has affected global energy supply chains,” PM Modi said, adding that the government continues to operate with an “India first” approach while responding to emerging challenges.

"Continuous efforts are also underway to determine how we can overcome the disruptions that have occurred in the supply chain," Modi said.

What about diplomatic efforts?

Prime Minister Modi has spoken to many global leaders since the start of Middle East conflict, with the US and Israel attacking Iran.

On Saturday, PM Modi spoke with Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian to discuss regional developments and strengthen bilateral cooperation. 

Both leaders expressed their shared hope that this festive season would usher in a period of peace, stability, and prosperity for the West Asian region.

Due to the ongoing war, the LPG situation remains a matter of concern.
