A petrol pump attendant picks up a nozzle to refuel a vehicle at an Indian Oil Corporation fuel station in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on March 25, 2026. Concerns over potential supply disruptions linked to the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran have led to long queues at petrol pumps across Kashmir. Authorities state there are no shortages, but rumors of a possible lockdown have triggered panic buying. The concerns are driven by potential disruptions in global oil supply, particularly through the Strait of Hormuz, a key transit route for a significant share of India's crude imports. Recent data indicates that approximately 40% of India's oil imports have traditionally passed through this route, making it sensitive to geopolitical tensions.
