GOA: Amidst India Energy Week 2026 buzz, Petroleum Minister Hardeep Singh Puri underscored India’s energy triumphs on Thursday. He spotlighted $500 billion investment potentials and $100 billion in exploration-production as viable under PM Modi’s helm, with momentum building swiftly.
Recapping a January 27 PM-CEO forum focused on innovative energy pathways, Puri stressed intertwining security, eco-friendliness, and expansion.
The EU-India FTA emerged as a cornerstone, dubbed by the EU as the genesis of trade deals. Offering zero-duty market access for 98% Indian goods across 27 high-income nations, it heralds export booms and fortified global ties.
Commenting on port and shelter investments, Puri praised their growth impetus. Despite turmoil—dollar swings, freight surges from elongated paths, unchanged insurance—retail prices have held firm, a feat especially in BJP realms, fused with green agendas.
Puri’s vision articulates India’s narrative: mastering global volatility to deliver stability, growth, and sustainability for its people.
