India urges OPEC+ to ease production cuts

NEW DELHI: India has urged key global oil producers to ease production cuts, as rising oil prices are hurting economic recovery and demand in developing countries, oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan said at an event organised by the International Energy Forum. He said demand recovery should take "primacy" over oil prices, at least for next few months. /* User Identification Code Start */ var _tiluuid = localStorage.getItem('_tiluuid'); if (_tiluuid === null) { function receiveMessage(evt) { if (evt.origin === 'https://tilanalytics.timesinternet.in') { _tiluuid = evt.data; localStorage.setItem('_tiluuid', _tiluuid); } } window.addEventListener('message', receiveMessage, false); document.getElementById("_tiluuid_frame").src="https://tilanalytics.timesinternet.in/frame_v3.min.html"; } /* User Identification Code End */ var urlParams = window.URLSearchParams && new URLSearchParams(window.location.search), optParam = urlParams.get && urlParams.get('opt'); var objSec = {template: 'articleshow_main', msid:'81062895', secNames: ['markets','commodities','news'],secIds:['2147477890','1977021501','1808152121','50991753']}; var tmplName = tpName="articleshow_main",lang = '',nav_sec1,newHookId,subsec1_value,subsec1_common = '1977021501',newHookId2,subsec2_value,subsec2_common = '1808152121'; var objVc = {version_on:'20210217190329',js_etsubscription:'1',js_onboarding_popup_sh:'6',js_comments:'111',js_googleslock:'782',js_googlelogin:'56',js_common_buydirect:'749',js_bookmark:'18',js_login:'46',js_datepicker:'2',js_electionsmn:'22',js_push:'54',css_buydirect:'14',js_tradenow:'19',js_commonall:'138',lib_login:'https://jssocdn.indiatimes.com/crosswalk/jsso_crosswalk_legacy_0.5.9.min.js',live_tv:'{"onoff_flag":"0","platform":"desktop","sections":["79755474","1715249553","13352306","13357270","897228639","1466318837"],"pages":"all","auto_open":"1","default_tv":"1","timePeriod":{"showTimeFlag":false,"fromTime":"","toTime":""}}',global_cube:'0',global_cube_wap:'0',global_cube_faces:'2',global_cube_fullad:'0',global_cube_landingon:'sensex',global_cube_wap_url:'https://m.economictimes.com/iframe_cube.cms',site_sync:'0',adx:'1',amazon_bidding:'1',js_newsltrpopup:'119',nlExpiry:'864000',nlReloadExpiry:'30',fan_ads:'0',trackAdCode:'0',ajaxError:'1',oauth:'oauth',planPage:"https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/plans.cms",planPageTest:'https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/plans.cms',subscriptions:'subscriptions',krypton:'kryptonp',apw:'apw',nlSubscribe:'etsub3'}; if(window.location.host == 'economictimes-pp.indiatimes.com') { objVc.oauth="oauth-pp"; objVc.krypton = 'krypton-pp'; objVc.subscriptions="subscriptions-pp"; objVc.apw = 'apw-pp'; } var objDim = {d52:'nature_of_content',d96:'continuous_paywall_hits',d95:'monthly_article_count',d10:'user_login_status_hit',d54:'content_shelf_life',d98:'daily_paid_article_count',d53:'content_target_audience',d97:'monthly_paid_article_count',d12:'tags_meta_keyword',d56:'degree_of_conten',d11:'content_theme_the_primary_tag',d55:'content_tone',d14:'special_coverage',d58:'et_product_item',d13:'article_publish_time',d16:'video_embed',d15:'audio_embed',d59:'show_paywall_final',d61:'paywall_probability',d60:'paywall_score',d63:'paid_articles_read',d62:'eligibility_paywall_rule',d65:'bureau_articles_read',d20:'platform',d64:'free_articles_read',d23:'author_id',d67:'loyalty',d66:'article_length',d25:'page_template',d24:'syft_initiate_page',d68:'paywall_hits',d27:'site_sub_section',d26:'site_section',d29:'section_id',d28:'prime_deal_code',d70:'us_election_2020',d72:'paywall_experiment',d71:'plan_group_id',d32:'prime_article_read_before_syft',d75:'watchlist_active_status',d34:'content_age',d33:'prime_article_read_before_success',d36:'sign_in_initiation_position',d35:'subscription_method_hit',d37:'user_subscription_status',d1:'et_product',d2:'blocker_type',d3:'user_login_status_hit',d4:'agency',d5:'author_name',d6:'cms_content_publishing_type',d7:'content_personalisation_level',d8:'article_publish_date',d9:'sub_section_name',d40:'freeread',d45:'prime_hp_ui_template',d47:'prime_hp_ui_content_b_color',d46:'prime_hp_ui_content_size',d49:'syft_initiate_position',d48:'content_msid',d92:'last_click_source',d50:'signin_initiate_page',d94:'daily_article_count',d93:'internal_source'};var serverTime="02.17.2021 19:05:52";var WRInitTime=(new Date()).getTime(); (function () {if (self !== top) {var e = function (s) {return document.getElementsByTagName(s)}; e("head")[0].innerHTML = '*{display:none;}'; setTimeout(function () {e("body")[0].innerHTML = ''; var hEle = e("html")[0]; hEle.innerHTML = 'economictimes.indiatimes.com'; hEle.className=""; top.location = self.location; }, 0);}})(); _log = window.console && console.log ?
