Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged citizens to consider working from home to conserve fuel and reduce stress associated with daily commuting. This advice follows a techie's supportive comments on social media, emphasizing that India loses significant time and resources in traffic. Modi's push for remote work comes at a critical time as Brent crude oil prices have surged above $105 per barrel due to escalating tensions between the United States and Iran. As India's economy grapples with these rising oil costs, which affect inflation and foreign exchange reserves, Modi highlighted the importance of adopting practices established during the COVID-19 pandemic, such as virtual meetings and online work systems. He noted that India, being the third-largest oil importer, is highly susceptible to fluctuations in global energy markets, making fuel conservation a priority.
