Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, their impact is now being felt in India as well, prompting the government to hold a high-level security review. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will chair a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) at 11:30 AM, just before the regular Cabinet meeting. The focus of the discussion will be the evolving situation in West Asia, where recent conflict and a temporary ceasefire have disrupted global supply chains, especially oil and LPG. The meeting is expected to assess the geopolitical risks and their potential impact on India’s energy security, trade, and overall economic stability. Officials are closely monitoring developments to ensure that essential supplies remain unaffected and that consumers do not face shortages or price shocks. After the CCS review, the Cabinet is expected to deliberate on broader policy decisions. The government aims to remain prepared for any escalation in the region while safeguarding national interests amid global uncertainty caused by prolonged conflict in West Asia.
