Prime Minister Narendra Modi has also made multiple public appeals, starting May 11, to countrymen to conserve forex by cutting down on foreign travel, limiting fuel use and refraining from gold buys for a year. For the week ended June 26, foreign currency assets, a major component of the reserves, decreased USD 150 million to USD 541.067 billion, the central bank's data showed.
