India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called on the nation's citizens to conserve fuel in the wake of escalating tensions between India and Iran. The move comes as India's oil imports from Iran have been a source of controversy in recent months, with the US imposing sanctions on the country's oil exports. With global fuel prices already at a record high, Modi's appeal to conserve fuel is seen as a bid to mitigate the economic impact of the crisis on Indian households. As India's economy continues to grow, the government is under pressure to balance its energy needs with the need to reduce its reliance on imported oil.
