Summary
Indian-flagged commercial vessels continued to be prominent users of the Strait of Hormuz in April, with the LPG tanker *Green Asha* becoming the eighth such vessel to transit the strategic waterway since early March. Reports describe this pattern as utilization of a 'new shipping route,' with the activity occurring amid regional tensions that Iran has noted in messages to New Delhi. These tensions, referred to as a 'distant war in West Asia,' are also reported to be affecting infrastructure projects in Mumbai.
In a separate domestic development, Air India CEO Campbell Wilson resigned from his position. He will remain in the role until a successor is appointed. The resignation occurs as the airline navigates financial losses and regulatory scrutiny.
