| Summary/Abstract |
It has been more than six month of Modi’s government where his energy policies are already being tested both in terms of foreign policy dimension with increased energy engagements with the outside world as well as with his domestic energy policies, which were often criticised as ineffective during the previous regimes, despite some opportunities which came through, but was lost due to domestic bureaucratic and political hurdles. This is particularly with respect to Indo-US Nuclear Deal grabbed during United Progressive Alliance (UPA) I. This deal is yet to see a light of a day.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article describes India's energy situation in the midst of current economic and geopolitical challenges while highlighting some of the key issues pertaining to India's natural gas infrastructure. The infrastructure dealt with in this article includes natural gas grids (networks of natural gas pipelines) and Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminals which are planned to be expanded further, as well as transnational gas pipelines from and through countries like Iran, Turkmenistan, Myanmar, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, which have been pursued by the Indian government for a long time. Other infrastructure such as city gas distribution, consisting of Piped Natural Gas (PNG) for domestic and commercial use and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) for use in automobile industries, remains outside the scope of this article. The article further highlights how such an energy situation coupled with poor natural gas infrastructure has deepened India's energy crisis, characterised by poor performance of the power sector, particularly those run on natural gas. It gives some recommendations for improving such infrastructure and better gas diplomacy for its transnational gas pipelines which could lead to better and faster distribution of natural gas across the country. The article also highlights the preferred course of action for the government, besides offering policy prescriptions in due course.

| Summary/Abstract |
Therefore, given India’s effort towards seeking for sustainable energy security options, the role of unconventional energy resources becomes extremely vital, which certainly has the potential to change the percentage share of India’s natural gas in its total energy basket, whereby it can not only correct India’s growing fiscal deficit by curbing down its dependency on imported crude and of late of coal, it would also take care of India’s holistic low carbon growth plans, which certainly needs to make natural gas as a bridge fuel, checking carbon emissions, while satiating its burgeoning energy needs.
