Held a very positive informal interaction with members of the media fraternity to brief them about various aspects of the energy scenario in the light of the geopolitical situation in the Middle East. We discussed how the trilemma of energy availability, affordability and sustainability continues to guide India’s approach under the leadership of PM Sh @narendramodi Ji which is focused on meeting the energy requirements of our citizens. Informed the media persons that India has sufficient energy reserves to deal with the ongoing situation. Was joined by senior officials of @PetroleumMin and captains of India’s PSU energy entities at the interaction.

A landmark moment for India’s technological journey under the visionary leadership of Narendra Modi Ji. The HCL–Foxconn Semiconductor Unit in Uttar Pradesh is a decisive step towards Aatmanirbharta in critical technologies, leapfrogging and strengthening our position in the global chip ecosystem and reinforcing resilient value chains. Kudos to Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw Ji and @MeitYIndia for driving India’s semiconductor mission with utmost clarity, sincerity and commitment. India’s #Techade is firmly underway — from software excellence to hardware leadership, the future of semiconductors is being shaped in India. 🇮🇳

The establishment of the HCL-Foxconn semiconductor facility in Uttar Pradesh is a step towards technological self-reliance. It will boost India’s presence in the global chip ecosystem. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

The two states in India’s North East Region are blessed with natural resources, talent and an indomitable will to progress across all sectors. They continue to make remarkable contributions to India’s journey towards Viksit Bharat under the dynamic leadership of PM Sh @narendramodi Ji.

India’s energy Maharatna @BPCLimited achieves a bold stride in offshore engineering which reflects India’s growing Aatmanirbharta in fuel logistics in our journey towards energy self-sufficiency under the visionary leadership of PM Sh @narendramodi Ji. In a demanding inter-tidal zone, where tidal windows constantly shift and precision cannot falter, BPCL completed a 10-inch x 2.3 km Offshore Sea-to-Land Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) pull under the Mumbai-Rasayani Pipeline Project, marking one of India’s first offshore HDD crossings of this scale. This achievement reflects the energy PSU’s commitment to advancing technical capability, enhancing infrastructure resilience, and delivering complex projects with precision, safety, and operational excellence. Kudos to Team BPCL! @PMOIndia @PIB_India @PetroleumMin

@HardeepSPuri congratulations sir. Wishing you a fabulous birthday. You have been a star performer and a great member of Team India under Modi ji. Wishing you decades of good health and all round happiness

@HardeepSPuri @narendramodi A major boost to India’s clean energy ambitions. 🇮🇳 Green Hydrogen at ₹279/kg marks a big stride in affordability and global competitiveness under PM Shri @narendramodi Ji’s leadership. #GreenHydrogen #EnergyTransition

Driving innovation, advancing affordability, and accelerating India’s journey towards a sustainable energy landscape under the leadership of PM Sh @narendramodi Ji. Green Hydrogen prices fall by 15%, reaching ₹279/kg (~$3/kg, excl. taxes). Setting a new global benchmark for affordability as Green Hydrogen becomes more cost efficient, the path toward a cleaner, self-reliant energy future grows stronger. #GreenHydrogen #EnergyTransition @PMOIndia @PetroleumMin @PIB_India

Delighted to speak with Mr. Tarique Rahman. I congratulated him on the remarkable victory in the Bangladesh elections. I conveyed my best wishes and support in his endeavour to fulfil the aspirations of the people of Bangladesh. As two close neighbours with deep-rooted historical and cultural ties, I reaffirmed India’s continued commitment to the peace, progress, and prosperity of both our peoples. @trahmanbnp

Discussed a wide range of issues pertaining to the development of Nagaland and the North East Region with Nagaland Chief Minister Sh @Neiphiu_Rio Ji, when he visited my office in the Parliament House today with Ministers Sh @princepaiwang Ji and Sh C.L. John Ji and senior officials of Nagaland Govt. @PetroleumMin @ONGC_ @OilIndiaLimited

Energy growth and economic growth move together. As India’s economy expanded to around USD 4.3 trillion, energy systems scaled in parallel - from nationwide gas networks and LPG access to CNG mobility and LNG readiness. With India now the world’s 3rd largest energy consumer, long-term planning and system preparedness remain central to sustaining growth under the leadership of PM Sh @narendramodi Ji. #EnergySecurity #EconomicGrowth

WATCH- Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri briefs media. He has a habit of making baseless allegations & lying: @HardeepSPuri slams Rahul Gandhi, responds to Cong's Epstein charges.

The seemingly impossible becomes possible when women lead with courage and conviction. Congratulations to Femina Achievers Awards and to Lakshmi madam for her encouragement to celebrate India’s extraordinary changemakers alongside Rakul Preet Storytelling creates role models — and role models create a new normal. #FeminaAchieversAwards2026 #WomenOfImpact

The Seemingly Impossible Becomes Possible. Congratulations to all the phenomenal women and trailblazers honoured at the Femina Achievers Awards 2026 — changemakers, innovators, creators and courageous voices redefining success in their own distinctive ways. It was a pleasure to present an award alongside the gracious and accomplished @Rakulpreet Singh, whose poise and purpose reflect the confidence of a new generation of Indian women. This year’s awardees embody excellence across fields — from culinary creativity and digital influence to classical music, dance and fashion innovation; from neonatal healthcare and para-sporting glory to constitutional advocacy, entrepreneurship and global communications leadership. Each represents what Toni Morrison called “phenomenal women” — and what Muktabai envisioned as those who dare to swallow the Sun. For me, Femina has always been more than a magazine — a lifelong friend, philosopher and guide. From my years in diplomacy and at the United Nations, across continents, it remained a constant reminder that women’s stories shape movements and redefine possibility. As I said in my remarks, storytelling and role models build a new normal for gender equality — where women recognise their own strength and dominion. “Am I not complete and auspicious… I well know my own strength, my own dominion.” #FeminaAchieversAwards2026 @FeminaIndia @Shiveshbhatia @DrRadhikaBatra #MeetaPandit #VibhutiArora #SimranSharma #ManjariChaturvedi #RaghaviShukla #RimzimDadu @dollysingh @NitibhaKaul #DeveekaNijhawan

Thank you for the kind words Mr. President!

Where valour, memory and shared histories converge. Honoured to mark the international launch of #SwallowingtheSun in Edinburgh — UNESCO’s first City of Literature and, in Robert Burns’ words, the “birthplace of valour, country of worth.” My heartfelt thanks to Pippa Rann Books & Media, and to Prabhu Guptara, for carrying this Indo-British story of love and resistance to global readers. We were privileged by the presence of the Depute Lord Provost Lezley Marion Cameron, whose gracious words reflected the deep cultural bridges between India and Scotland. In conversation with the luminous Lady Joyce Caplan — truly the interpreter of our affinities — a distinguished literary voice with rare command over Indian, Scottish and global English traditions, the evening acquired both intellectual depth and emotional resonance, elegantly and effortlessly anchored by Anjana Puri, whose poise, warmth and intuitive stewardship as our emcee elevated the entire occasion. A special mention to Sai Dodda, the true mover and shaker behind the curation of the evening, whose vision and energy shaped it so memorably. I was especially delighted by the gracious presence of the Consul General of India, Shri Siddharth Malik, affirming the enduring Indo-Scottish connection and the quiet diplomacy of literature. It was also a pleasure to have Janina Cismaru, representing the Consulate General of Romania, join the gathering. Heartening to see members of Scottish society from every walk of life — writers, scholars, students, cultural leaders and friends of India — alongside the Indian community, many proudly rooted in Scotland. Anna Bambrick and fellow members of #WAGGGS renewed our shared commitment to girls’ empowerment, while a remarkable young Scottish boys’ band brought vibrant brilliance to the evening. More than a launch, it was a confluence of cultures, conversation and shared imagination.
