New Delhi, June 3 : External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee today urged the international community to put in greater efforts to make energy available at affordable prices.
Addressing the 87th annual session of the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry (ASSOCHAM) in New Delhi, he hoped that India would soon become part of the high technology nuclear energy regime to fulfill its ever increasing energy requirements.
As to India’s ordeal vis-à-vis soaring international fuel prices, Mukherjee said the Cabinet would decide tomorrow on increasing the prices of fuel.
Pranab said the Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs (CCPA) meeting early on Wednesday morning would aim to agree upon the need for raising petrol, diesel and domestic LPG prices.
