In response to the ongoing crisis in West Asia, Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has implemented several measures aimed at promoting responsible fuel consumption. He has reduced his convoy to three vehicles and directed officials to work from home, urging them to submit an action plan on this policy within two days. Chouhan emphasized the need for carpooling and stated that foreign travel would be limited to essential trips only. Most meetings are to be held virtually to further reduce fuel consumption.

On the agricultural front, Chouhan announced the establishment of committees in every village to encourage balanced use of fertilisers and promote natural farming practices. He also called for an awareness campaign on the judicious use of edible oils, targeting groups of five families each. Additionally, he encouraged the use of Metro and public transport, while promoting domestic tourism and local products under initiatives like 'Vocal for Local' and 'Make in India'. These decisions aim to strengthen national resolve towards a developed India, or 'Viksit Bharat'.
