News Desk: India is importing almost twice as much crude oil from Russia ignoring US threat. According to sources, Indian oil companies are taking private initiative to buy Russian oil.

According to the international community, this oil is being bought by bypassing the OPEC. According to Indian oil refineries and traders, they are not willing to import through government tenders. Oil will be available at lower prices if contracted privately.
