I am not suggesting that just by taking the Metro, I will save billions. But I hope others will follow.

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.

Saving petrol is saving India's money. This is a sense of patriotism. The country can be energy-independent by energy conservation. I appeal to the other ministers also to do this.

Petrol price is a deregulated commodity, price of which is decided by our oil marketing companies based on input cost and other parameters.

If all of us work in accordance with rule of law, if rule of law is implemented, we are all safe, investors are safe, people will be safe.

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