Kolkata, March 6, 2026 (ANI): On the impact of US-Israel vs Iran conflict, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh says, "Strait of Hormuz or the entire Persian Gulf region is a crucial area for global energy security.

The way different countries are competing with each other on land, in the air, at sea, and now even in space is truly a matter of concern for all of us... What worries me even more is that this abnormality is becoming the new normal...."
