    After taking over as India’s new minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri made calls to major oil producing countries in the Gulf. He made the first call to Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and Managing Director and Group CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC).
