JAIPUR: Reacting to the decision of Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to cut oil production by 2 million barrels per day, union minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Friday said India will do all that is required to ensure its energy security and affordability. He said if required, India will go for diversification of energy sources.
“This is their (OPEC’s) sovereign right what they want to do but equally it is my job to point out that all actions have consequences, intended or unintended. India will be able to navigate through the situation with confidence,” the petroleum and natural gas minister said at GEO India 2022 conference here.
“We will not allow any shortages to come in. The government will do all that is required to ensure energy security and affordability,” he said.
