India voices “great anxiety” as West Asia conflict escalates during Ramadann

‎New Delhi, Mar 3 (UNI) ‎India on Tuesday expressed deep alarm over the escalating conflict in West Asia, warning that the deteriorating security situation during the holy month of Ramadan poses serious risks to civilians, regional stability and nearly one crore Indian nationals living in the Gulf.
‎In a statement, the Official Spokesperson of the Ministry of External Affairs said New Delhi had initially conveyed its “deep concern” when hostilities began in Iran and the Gulf region on February 28, 2026, urging all sides to exercise restraint and avoid escalation. “Unfortunately, in the holy month of Ramadan, the situation in the region has deteriorated significantly and continuously,” the spokesperson said.
‎The government noted that the conflict has not only intensified in recent days but has also spread to other countries in the region, compounding fears of wider instability. “The destruction and deaths have mounted, even as normal life and economic activities come to a halt,” the statement said, adding that as a proximate neighbour with critical stakes in regional security and stability, “these developments evoke great anxiety.”
