"... Prime Minister Gandhi had announced that India would buy 500,000 tons
of Algerian oil, the Algerian news agency said on June 11.  Speaking at a
news conference after two rounds of talks with President Chadli Benjedid in
Algiers, Gandhi had agreed to redress their trade imbalance, currently in
India's favor."		<Source:  INDIA ABROAD, June 21, 1985>

How much of India's oil is being refined in India?  Is any of it being ex-
ported to another country for refinement and then returned to India?  Refer-
ing to Sivan Mahadevan's message above, to which country is India exporting
oil?  From the news I have heard (and read) I thought India was still get-
ting oil from Iran.  Has anyone heard anything on this?
