Why India's reliance on Persian Gulf oil has become a liability | DW News

The Iran war has exposed how vulnerable so many of South Asia's economies are to energy shocks. As tension between the US and Iran continues, countries like India are facing rising pressure over fuel supplies, cooking gas shortages, inflation and economic security. But why has an economy as large as India's become so exposed to events in the Gulf?

- India’s dependence on Gulf energy
- Why LPG shortages are affecting millions of households
- The role of coal, renewables and energy diversification
- Risks to migrant workers and remittances from the Gulf
