Fuel conservation is a necessity, and I have to be the first person to set the example.

We need to do more to conserve fuel or face tougher choices such as steep price increase or even quantitative restrictions.

By 2020, 50 percent of imports should be reduced, which should become 75 percent by 2025. By 2030, India should be energy independent.

Those who know me would tell you, 'Moily can't be cowed down.' I have plans to enhance domestic oil and gas production.

Fuel conservation is as important as fuel production.

If I can save 25 billion dollars in terms of reduction of import, I will be adding one percent to the GDP. By conserving the oil energy by the people, the GDP will become 5.5 percent, and this will change the economy of the country.

It's a voluntary act. I cannot punish anyone not taking the public transport, but I want everyone, from the highest ranking officers to the lowest, to take public transport every Wednesday.
