Congress leader and leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi on Thursday warned that country's energy security could face serious challenges amid disruptions in global fuel markets caused by the escalating conflict in the Middle East.
Speaking about the potential impact of the crisis on India’s fuel supply, Rahul said the government must urgently prepare for possible shortages of oil and cooking gas.
"Normally the procedure is that you can ask to talk. So I asked to be allowed to make a statement about the LPG gas and oil situation in the country… But a new procedure has started where the Minister will first decide, then I will speak, then the Minister will reply," Rahul said while speaking to reporters.
