Govt Dismisses Shortage Rumours Amid Fuel Global Crisis | West Asia War Conflict

The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has moved to calm nerves as rumors of a "fuel dry-out" circulate online. In an official statement on March 26, 2026, the government confirmed that India has 60 days of steady fuel stock cover, ...

including crude oil, refined products, and strategic reserves.

Key Highlights of the Statement:

Supply Buffer: Procurement for the next two months is already tied up by Indian oil companies.
Refinery Output: Every Indian refinery is currently running at over 100% utilization.
Global Context: Despite disruptions near the Strait of Hormuz, India is sourcing crude from over 41 global suppliers.
LPG Status: Daily delivery of 50 lakh cylinders continues normally; domestic production has been ramped up.
The Verdict: The Ministry has labeled reports of a 6-day stock limit as "deliberate misinformation" and urged citizens to avoid panic buying.
