The Indian government has withdrawn most emergency curbs on natural gas supplies after liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipments through the Strait of Hormuz resumed following a ceasefire in the Middle East conflict.
India in March had invoked emergency measures to divert gas supplies from non-priority sectors to key users after the disruption of LNG shipments through the Strait of Hormuz.
The ministry said the situation has stabilized since March with a ceasefire in place, negotiations underway and maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz resuming, according to a report by Indian newspaper The New Indian Express.
