PM Modi Flags Multi-Dimensional Challenges
Earlier in the day, PM Modi addressed the Lok Sabha, highlighting the wide-ranging impact of the conflict on India.
He said the crisis has posed “unprecedented challenges” spanning economic, national security, and humanitarian dimensions.
Trade, Energy Security In Focus
The Prime Minister underlined India’s deep trade ties with countries involved in or affected by the conflict. He noted that the region is a crucial global trade route and a key source of India’s energy imports.
“A large part of our crude oil and gas requirements comes from this region,” he said, flagging concerns over supply disruptions.

Addressing energy concerns, Modi said the government has prioritised domestic LPG consumers amid global uncertainty.
