India`s falling oil and gas production is a matter of concern, Oil Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said, adding the government will soon set up a gas trading hub.
India`s crude oil production in October dropped 5 percent from a year earlier to about 2.89 million tonnes, while natural gas output was down 0.4 percent at 2.80 billion cubic metres, provisional data issued by the government showed last month.
