We are discussing all options.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But, we also have to be sensitive to the sanctions. We are discussing all these alternatives. Once something is finalised you will get to know about it,&#8221; Sankar said, adding there is no platform that I am aware of. &#8220;There are press reports, but there is nothing that I am aware of. But let me reiterate that anything that we do will be sensitive to the sanctions.&#8221;  \tThe governor chipped in saying &#8220;as and when a mechanism is worked out we will announce it. At the moment, basically, importers and exporters have an issue, and they have represented to government and to us. We are in discussions, but we are also sensitive to the sanctions, and the entire issue is under examination. No decision has been taken yet&#8221;.
