While crude oil movement through this strategic corridor\u2014responsible for 20% of global energy supply\u2014has remained paralyzed for the past 24 hours, India has managed to secure a &#8220;safe window&#8221; for its essential fuel carriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Reuters and shipping intelligence data, two Indian-flagged vessels, \u2018Pine Gas\u2019 and \u2018Jag Vasant\u2019, currently stationed near the Sharjah coast, are preparing to sail toward Indian shores. This comes at a time when hundreds of tankers from other nations remain anchored, unable to cross due to Iranian warnings. Last week, Iran allowed two other Indian gas carriers to pass, signaling a unique tactical understanding between New Delhi and Tehran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal confirmed that India is prioritizing the unhindered movement of its 22 vessels currently in the Gulf region. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is reportedly in constant touch with world leaders to maintain maritime security. As the energy crisis looms over the West, India\u2019s ability to keep its supply lines open amidst a regional conflict highlights its growing stature as a global strategic power.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a significant diplomatic victory for New Delhi, Indian LPG tankers are set to navigate the Strait of Hormuz despite a near-total blockade on global oil shipments by Iran.
