Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas, Hardeep Singh Puri, responded to Rahul Gandhi's recent statement on economic matters, particularly regarding trade tariffs. Puri, in his remarks, addressed the Congress leader's concerns, referring to him as a "54-year-old youth leader" who has been "relaunched many times."

Puri explained that the process of dealing with such complex economic issues, especially those involving India's largest trading partner, requires patience and careful consideration. "When one country imposes tariffs on another, it has an effect," he stated, emphasizing that economic interests and global trade dynamics must be approached with both "circumspection and understanding."

The minister further added, "We need to have patience. On an important issue which involves India's largest trading partner and where economic interests are concerned, we should exercise both circumspection and understanding and allow the situation to evolve." His statement underscored the importance of taking a measured approach and allowing the ongoing trade discussions to progress without rushing to conclusions.

Puri’s response reflected the government's position on handling sensitive economic issues strategically while highlighting the need for prudence in dealing with international trade relations.
