IEW-2025 Mistake or Deliberate Mischief ?

New Delh:While Preparations for IEW 25 in Full Swing Questions are being Raised regarding FIPI Press Conferences,The preparations for IEW 25 (India Energy Week) are on with great enthusiasm. As part of these preparations, the Federation of Indian Petroleum Industry (FIPI) has organized two big press conferences — one at the Media Center in Delhi and the other in Mumbai.

Select Media Persons who are known to be close to Media Advisor were invited to both press conferences, however many prominent Oil & Gas correspondents were left out altoghether.

Recently, NewsIP received exclusive and astonishing insights from a reliable source, which we are sharing with our esteemed readers.

A surprising development was noticed during both press conferences, FIPI’s Director General, who is the major organizer and his select team members who are in charge of IEW were absent from the head table/ podium. This raised a number of eyebrows. Speculations making the rounds was that their seat must have been placed in the audience section to suggest sub serviance and excessive display of respect in public.

However, protocol and decorum clearly dictated that they be on the stage after all they are the main organisers. Some sources even hinted that there might have been compelling reasons, or more likely that the Director General himself declined to take the stage perhaps on some slight done to him. What surprised most present was that an erstwhile retired government servant graced as Media Advisor, was most prominent and sat on the Centre Table/ Podium on all occassions. Although he and his team are not directly involved in organizing IEW rather reporting on it and liaisoning with the media.This most felt was perhaps showcasing the real purpose of these meetings – ‘Media Show’ rather than any serious business purpose.

Additionally, a source, speaking on the condition of anonymity, jokingly remarked that if the energy of PSUs (Public Sector Undertakings) is drained even before the Energy Week even begins, then how will there be any energy left for the week itself? The energy of PSU team appears to be WEAK for the WEEK.This statement although said in humour casts serious doubts on certain aspects of the event’s planning and execution.

IEW 25 is considered a vital platform for fostering discussions and exploring new opportunities in the energy sector. The developments narrated above have raised serious questions about the event’s organization and leadership.
