Reliance Industries and its partner BP plc's KG-D6 gas fields and gas discovery area NEC-25 are among 14 oil and gas blocks that have been declared 'No-Go' areas by the defence ministry, barring any exploration or production activity.

The ministry of defence has either withdrawn or withheld clearances for 47 oil and gas blocks. Of these, 14 have been classified as 'No-Go' areas, sources privy to the development said.

RIL-BP's KG-DWN-98/3 or KG-D6 block has been declared as 'No-Go' as it overlaps with a proposed naval base.
