Kerala Governor Responds to PM's Call for Fuel Conservation

In response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appeal for fuel conservation, Kerala Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar has taken significant steps to curtail the number of vehicles in his convoy, official sources confirm.

Arlekar has cut his convoy by one-third, limiting it to just pilot and escort vehicles. This move aligns with Modi's recent initiative to reduce petrol and diesel consumption amid a global energy crisis.

The Prime Minister has urged the use of public transportation, carpooling, and electric vehicles to lessen dependency on foreign fuel and conserve resources. Arlekar's decision reflects the growing emphasis on fuel conservation strategies at both state and national levels.
