The India-flagged LPG vessel, Green Asha, safely docked at Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority (JNPA) on Thursday, marking a significant moment for India’s energy supply chain amid escalating tensions in West Asia.

The vessel, carrying 15,400 tonnes of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), successfully navigated the volatile Strait of Hormuz — a critical global oil transit chokepoint — while the region remains on edge due to the ongoing conflict involving Iran, the US, and Israel.
