Summary

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made an appeal to citizens, twice in 48 hours. Both times, he has emphasized on four key points- reduce fuel usage, avoid buying gold as well as foreign travel, and lastly cut fertiliser use by 50%. #CutTheClutter looks at the calculus behind PM Modi's concerns amid the ongoing war in Iran. ThePrint Editor-In-Chief Shekhar Gupta also explains how much gold, fertiliser, crude does India import and why foreign travel has been a concern. Episode 1838
