Government Debunks Fuel Shortage Rumors: India's Energy Supply Secure

• Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas clarifies that social media rumors about petrol, diesel, and LPG shortages are fake.
• India is the world's fourth-largest petroleum refiner, exporting fuel to over 150 countries, ensuring domestic availability.
• Panic buying, not actual shortage, caused queues; oil companies extended credit and kept depots open overnight.
• Claims of only 6 days of oil left are false; India has 60 days of reserves and secured procurement for two months.
• LPG production increased by 40%, covering over 60% of daily needs; PNG promotion is a long-term clean energy strategy, not due to shortage.
