Sanjay Singh, a Member of Parliament from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), has publicly criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for what he describes as the government's failure to address the ongoing fuel crisis in India. Speaking in Odisha, Singh stated that Modi is 'directly responsible' for the energy crisis, as fuel prices have surged three times in just over a week. He emphasized the struggles of ordinary citizens who are facing long queues at petrol stations due to rising prices of diesel and petrol. Singh also condemned the government's efforts to take control of the Gymkhana Club, asserting that this reflects a broader trend of land grabbing for the benefit of the elite. He questioned why India does not procure oil from Iran, especially given that other nations like China have successfully done so. Singh further noted that India's reliance on Venezuelan oil is problematic, as it is both costlier and logistically challenging, taking approximately 56 days to arrive compared to 25 days from Russia and just 7 days from Iran. He urged the Prime Minister to formulate a clear energy policy to alleviate the crisis.
