#WATCH | Nagpur, Maharashtra: Union Minister Nitin Gadkari says, “Last night at 8 PM, I signed the file, finalising the regulations to legally authorise the use of 100% ethanol. I am delighted to share that I, along with Hardeep Singh Puri, had the opportunity to launch the 100% ethanol-compatible version of the WagonR—Maruti Suzuki’s best-selling car. Regarding motorcycles, Hero MotoCorp—which accounts for three out of every five motorcycles sold—has launched two flex-fuel models capable of running on 100% ethanol. Following this, companies like Toyota, Suzuki, MG, and Hyundai will launch 100% ethanol-compatible vehicles within the next month and a half. Thus, ethanol will serve as a viable alternative to petrol. People used to laugh when I spoke of this dream, and some friends even criticised it...Soon, we will launch a pilot project in Nagpur featuring a hydrogen pump and two hydrogen-powered buses. The public will be able to ride these hydrogen buses, which will be powered by green hydrogen extracted from water using an electrolyser. That day is now near.”

𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 #𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐦 𝐢𝐧 𝟐 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐬. : If INDIA truly wants to cut fuel import bills by Rs 3 lakh crores, all we have to do is build decent roads, proper infrastructure & remove encroachments. But contractors pay netas their cut money & encroachers who cause traffic jams are vote banks of netas. We are told ethanol is “good for the environment” but to produce 1 litre of ethanol it takes 2500-3500 litres of water at sugar mills or above 10,000 litres per litre at rice mills! This when the country is facing water shortage. How is this good for anyone except the netas? Most ethanol distilleries are owned by netas, for example Nitin Gadkari ji’s son! And please tell me how is Gadkari ji announcing ethanol policy when he is neither the Petroleum Minister, nor Agriculture Minister, nor Industry Minister? We the people pay full price for our vehicles road tax insurance tolls GST on spares… and in return we get pathetic roads, terrible infrastructure & now forced ethanol-blended fuel that kills mileage & damages engines. Meanwhile netas with direct conflict of interest are minting crores & crores and the poor hardworking honest INDIAN suffers as most Indian vehicles aren’t even E20 compatible yet Nitin Gadkari ji is forcing these ethanol norms on us as if we are lab rats! #EthanolScam. #EthanolScam #GadkariEthanol #MiddleClassLoot

Only needs tuning and government should pay for it. Been saying for long.

E25, E85 entra ivanni? Cars ni nasanam chestara enti?? Are these guys pushing us towards EVs or is this daylight robbery? 🤔 Enduku evaru deeni meeda question cheyyadam ledu? Even the opposition? 🚗

This is how a quintessential Modi bhakt’s brain functions! No matter how big a predicament the common public faces because of Modi govt’s hocus-pocus policies, he’s invariably right and we’ve just to fall in line and obey his diktats. At times you’re even asked to sell your 5yo car because Modi wants Ethanol blending with Petrol, and it’s my mistake that I bought a car that isn’t compatible with Modi’s vision. No wonder India is in such a rut.

🚨 "I signed the final regulations to legalize the use of 100% ethanol in India," says Minister Nitin Gadkari.

The auto industry won't listen until sales are hit. My demands are simple: • End the arbitrary 10-15 year vehicle ban. Judge vehicles by fitness & emissions, not age. • Give consumers a choice of fuels instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all policy. Respect consumers or lose them.

E20 fu​​​​​​​el use in older cars can be treated as ‘improper use’ or ‘negligence’: ICICI Lombard ow.ly/HEw6106zFsc

Mumbai before the reclamations

This sticker is from an Indian car? But same company manufacturer says its e20 compliant
