India navigates Hormuz, Red Sea crises without fuel shortages

India has demonstrated resilience in addressing geopolitical tensions affecting global energy markets, Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said, citing the country's ability to maintain fuel security amid regional crises. Following earlier instability in the Strait of Hormuz, heightened tensions in the Red Sea have disrupted oil supply chains worldwide, Puri noted. Despite these challenges to international energy flows, India has ensured adequate fuel availability for domestic consumption without experiencing shortages. The minister's comments underscore New Delhi's strategic energy management approach, which has enabled the nation to weather multiple global supply disruptions. India's diversified sourcing strategies and policy measures have allowed it to insulate consumers from international market volatility, officials said.
