The Indian government has prioritized energy security, implementing a multi-pronged strategy that diversifies supply sources, boosts domestic oil and gas production, and promotes alternative energy. External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar highlighted ongoing diplomatic efforts to address challenges posed by geopolitical tensions, such as the Russia-Ukraine war and U.S. sanctions impacting India’s energy imports from Russia and Iran. The government continually monitors these developments to safeguard national interests and has facilitated the safe return of Indian nationals from conflict zones. This proactive approach underscores India’s commitment to ensuring affordable energy access while maintaining robust international relations.
