Global LPG prices rose sharply during the war period, and many countries saw cooking gas become more expensive, putting pressure on household budgets.
But India managed the situation in a way that ensured both availability and a controlled impact for common households.
PM Modi kept prices steady by:
* Diversifying crude sourcing across nations
* Strategic reserves cushioned global shocks
* Strong diplomacy ensured a steady supply
* Excise duty cuts eased the burden
* Efficient refining kept supply smooth
Under UPA, when global energy prices rose, the burden fell on common people.
Under PM Modi, India remained largely unaffected.
This is not luck, but smart leadership.
