The Indian-flagged crude oil tanker, Jag Laadki, successfully arrived at Adani Ports & Special Economic Zone's Mundra terminal in Gujarat, delivering approximately 80,886 metric tonnes of crude oil sourced from the United Arab Emirates. This delivery is crucial for India's energy security, especially given the escalating regional tensions in West Asia. The arrival of Jag Laadki follows similar successful passages by Indian-flagged LPG carriers, Shivalik (ship) and Nanda Devi (ship), through the Strait of Hormuz. India is actively managing its energy imports and maintaining a naval presence under Operation Sankalp to safeguard vital shipping lanes. The India — Directorate General of Shipping and the Union Shipping Minister are closely monitoring the situation to minimize operational disruptions to maritime trade.
