Russia's Growing Oil Imports to India
The Indian government has approved a deal worth ₹1.44 lakh crore to import Russian oil, with the first shipment expected to arrive soon. The move comes amid rising tensions between Russia and Western countries over Ukraine. The government said it will help reduce dependence on imported oil and boost domestic production. However, critics alleged that the deal would lead to increased prices for Indian consumers. The opposition claimed that the government was prioritizing its own interests over national security.
