NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the government has constituted seven empowered groups to evolve strategies on fuel, supply chains, and fertilisers, among others, to tackle the impact of the West Asia crisis.

In a statement in the Rajya Sabha, he said the war has created a serious energy crisis globally.

He also warned miscreants against taking advantage of crisis, and has asked state governments to check black marketing and hoarding.
