Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated on Tuesday that the Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Amendment Bill, 2024, is a key law that will help improve energy security in India and make the country more prosperous. His message came after the Bill was approved in the Rajya Sabha.

This new law aims to change the current rules about exploring and producing oil and gas. It will separate oil operations from mining to encourage more investment in the energy sector. The Bill, which was introduced in August, passed by a voice vote.

Modi praised the law, saying it is vital for boosting energy security and supporting a prosperous India. Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri also expressed excitement, saying that India’s fast-growing energy industry took a big step forward with these important changes to the Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Act, originally established in 1948.
