India assures no fuel shortages and gives 10% LPG boost
With Iran and the US at odds, you might expect some fuel chaos, but India's making sure that doesn't happen.
Officials say there's no shortage of gasoline, diesel, or LPG anywhere in the country.
To boost clean energy at home, 21 states and union territories just got a 10% bump in LPG allocation to help more people switch to piped gas.
India diversifies energy sources
India isn't just waiting things out: it's actively diversifying where it gets its energy.
The ship Jag Vikram is set to bring in over 20,000 tons of LPG to Kandla port on April 14 as part of efforts to rely less on Gulf countries.
Meanwhile, connections with the Gulf are still strong: nearly 1 million people have flown in from the region since late February, and even vehicle production saw a healthy jump last month, proof that business (and life) keeps moving forward despite global tensions.
