These bureaucrats have twisted it for Gadkari by creating a misconception that mileage and average are the same thing. Mileage is the official fuel efficiency measured under standardized testing conditions, whereas average is the actual real-world fuel economy your vehicle delivers. Claimed mileage can vary, but what ultimately matters to vehicle owners is the real-world average. The same question applies to E20 fuel. If it was tested in controlled laboratory conditions, where is the real-world testing? Which cars and bikes were tested over the long term, in different climates, terrains, and driving conditions? That’s exactly what I asked during the protest not for a lab report, but for real-world evidence! ☺️ Tehseen Poonawalla Official 🇮🇳 Dinesh

The police force is not here to get beaten up, period. That is unacceptable. And this is a criminal act...I do not believe that students were responsible for this: Tehseen Poonawalla Official 🇮🇳 Try this kind of stunt anywhere in France, Britain, Italy, or anywhere else — you will see heavily militarised police responses...

#WATCH | Delhi | AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal says, "Today, I have written to 29 auto manufacturing companies. I sent separate letters to three companies—Maruti, Toyota, and Hero- which had stated in a government press conference that E-20 fuel will not cause any problem in older vehicles. I pointed out to these three companies specify in their owner's manuals that older vehicles should not use fuel with an ethanol content higher than E-10. So, I have asked them two questions: If the use of E-20 results in a mileage drop of more than five per cent or causes damage to any component, will compensation be provided? They should inform the public whether E20 can be used in automobiles made by them before 2023. If yes, then in case of mileage issues or damage to any component, will the company compensate for the loss?"

#WATCH | Delhi: On ethanol, Vikram Gulati, Country Head and Executive Vice President (Corporate Affairs and Governance) of Toyota Kirloskar Motor, says, "Every vehicle sold in the country after 2023 is E20-compliant. Even vehicles from before 2023 can run on E20 without any problem. As I mentioned, studies show a slight drop in mileage—around 4-5%. This does happen. The reason is that ethanol has lower energy content; hence, mileage decreases by about 4 to 5% with E20. In fact, performance actually improves because the vehicle's acceleration gets better. Ethanol has a significantly higher octane number. You might even be surprised to learn that pure ethanol is used in Formula 1 racing. So, you cannot say that performance suffers; in reality, performance—in terms of acceleration, torque, and so on—actually improves..."

#WATCH | Guwahati, Assam: Raijor Dal MLA Akhil Gogoi staged protest in the Assam assembly premises against Ethanol blend fuel He says, "By mixing 20% ethanol in petrol, they have ruined our car engines. Mileage has also reduced. The government is saying that this is an experiment. If it is an experiment, then try it in one or two vehicles. Why in the entire country? If you want to experiment further, then make a provision that for those who use normal petrol, it will be normal petrol and for those who use E20, it will be E-E20. And thirdly, you should look at the price, look at the price of petrol, 20% ethanol is mixed in it. Has the price of petrol reduced after this?..."

Big News : BJP MP is now openly supporting E20 Janta Party 🚨 “E20 must be debated in Parliament.” BJD MP Sulata Deo has urged the Central Government to conduct a nationwide survey on vehicles using E20 fuel. She raised concerns including: • Are existing vehicles fully compatible with E20? • What happens to owners who keep their cars for 10–20 years? • If consumers are expected to bear higher maintenance costs, why aren’t fuel prices coming down? “A person’s car might fail even before they finish paying their EMIs.” Millions of vehicle owners deserve clear answers, transparent data, and an open parliamentary debate on E20. Should Parliament hold a full discussion on E20? Yes or No?

Tehseen Poonawalla is absolutely right & must be supported by everyone univocally on this issue. If you don’t support him, you risk your valuable vehicles which are at risk now. The forced E20 ethanol blending policy has become a textbook case of conflict of interest, lack of transparency, and disregard for the common citizen. How people of India are being treated as Guinea pigs for trials and how their only precious asset a 2,3 or 4 wheeler is risked is appalling, brazen and shames less and that to benefit Mr Gadkari’s son 😡 While Union Minister Nitin Gadkari aggressively pushes mandatory E20 — claiming it helps farmers and cuts imports — his own sons reportedly have direct business interests in ethanol distilleries that have seen massive revenue surges. Petroleum Minister Hardeep Singh Puri defends it by comparing our daily drivers to racing cars and downplays mileage drops, engine wear, and the complete absence of consumer choice. This is unacceptable. Citizens have every right to choose between E20 and regular petrol. Old cars, new cars, bikes — all are being forced into an untested rollout without proper public disclosure of ARAI reports or impact studies. When policy benefits connected businesses while harming vehicle owners and wallets, accountability must follow. Let’s take a note of the fact that ICICI Lombard has refused to settle claims for issues related to vehicle damages in this context. Tehseen’s demand is fully justified — Nitin Gadkari and Hardeep Singh Puri must be sacked, without further delay. The people of India deserve transparency, choice, and ministers who put the nation before family business interests.

#WATCH | Pune, Maharashtra: On E20 fuel mileage test, Director, Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) Dr Reji Mathai says, "... The studies were done along with the OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturer), the vehicle manufacturers who understand their vehicles very well, to assess the impact of E20 compared to E10. We understand that ethanol as a fuel has a slightly lower calorific value. So the blend also has a slightly lower calorific value. There is a controlled test being done for fuel consumption... When these tests are done in controlled conditions — chamber temperatures maintained, vehicles on rollers — we can precisely understand the impact due to the fuel. We studied varied vehicles, selected by OEMs along with us. Some were 10 years old, some around 8 years, and some 3 to 4 years old. These vehicles, when tested, showed a range of around 2 to 6% drop in fuel consumption..."

#WATCH | Delhi: On ethanol, Vikram Gulati, Country Head and Executive Vice President (Corporate Affairs and Governance) of Toyota Kirloskar Motor, says, "...I think there is a lot of misunderstanding about the fuel. For example, if you look at it from the automotive sector, there is a lot of myth that if you use E20 blended fuel, vehicles will get damaged. It's a myth. It doesn't happen this way. There's a lot of myth about the amount of mileage loss or the fuel efficiency loss. Yes, there is some fuel efficiency loss, no doubt. But it is not so big as it is being made out to be...E85 and E100, that is, 85% ethanol and 100 % ethanol, are not meant for regular cars. It is meant for a different type of technology, which is called a flex fuel vehicle. This vehicle can take any mix of ethanol. So people need not worry. E20 is the standard fuel that will be available, and it is compatible with old vehicles and new vehicles. All vehicles sold after 1st of April 2023 are fully materially compliant with E20. And people need to be reassured that in 2021, before we went into E20, there was a very detailed scientific study done by the leading automobile testing agency in the country, which is ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India). It clearly established that the possible damage to cars and two wheelers which are old is not there. It's very insignificant. And it also established that the fuel efficiency loss is to the extent of 2 to 4 per cent, not significant." On ethanol, he says, "As per the latest statistics from the government, the program so far has helped save 1.9 trillion rupees. Out of that, 1,60,000 crores has gone to farmers. So in the case of India, it's not only helped us to in some way mitigate the energy crisis, but it's also helped us to help the farmers...The reason why not just India, but many other countries are doing it is for energy security, for the agrarian economy, as well as for fighting climate change and environmental purposes."

Big breaking! Now vlogger Sourav Joshi BACKTRACKS on his claims that that the mileage of Mercedes-Benz SUVs had dropped significantly because of E20 petrol Now he says, it’s not petrol, it’s “engine issue” Sourav Joshi's Fresh Statement👇 "We visited the Mercedes service centre, and they found that there was an issue with the engine, which was causing the low mileage. I apologise for the misunderstanding regarding E20 petrol," He clarified that he never had the intention to spread incorrect information or hurt sentiments Looks like he developed cold feet after Toyota took action on Youtuber Manish Kashyap’s claim that E20 damaged his brand new Toyota Innova Hycross Now is anyone paying these big SM influencers to MANUFACTURE this controversy ? Are they just doing this to create sensation & get some views? Or was Saurav just trying to promote Electric Cars in a unique way ? Frankly, before this SM controversy, didn’t even know meri gadi main kaunsa petrol ja raha hain Both my pre-2023 cars are working just fine I fill petrol in reputed petrol pumps & get my cars serviced in authorised service centres Maruti Suzuki serviced 2.84 crore cars in FY 2025-26, of which 1.5 crore were older vehicles never certified for E20. No E20 related damage was found. If E20 genuinely damaged rubber hoses, fuel lines or engines, this would have shown up as a wave of warranty claims and complaints. That wave never happened. Since this is a very serious matter of national importance, I hope गृहमंत्री कार्यालय, HMO India looks after whether all this is part of toolkit or just to get publicity? Anyway, someone spreading such fake stories does a lot of harm to our Ethanol blending plans that affects our energy security

And yet in return we get Pathetic roads, mostly terrible infrastructure, traffic jams and now fuel that destroys the engines and kills mileage of our vehicles! Meanwhile we all know that most sugar mills owned by netas & their families and it is their linked companies that are minting crores from ethanol distilleries. Let's cut out the BS, this is a straight-up Ethanol Scam! And while we INDIANs have to pay a price & yet suffer, these netas profit and make money!

Do NOT Comply? What with? Absolutely everything those in charge ask you to do. They are NOT your friend. EV buyers are the latest to be stitched up. Not only do you now have to pay tax on your EV but you’re gonna be clobbered with pay per mile now as well. How is saving the planet and paying less working out for you now? Whats even worse is that new vehicles inc all new EV’s will have telematics built into them that automatically transmit your mileage and data to the government tax bullies so you can’t even escape the charges and to REALLY run salt in the wounds you’ll even be charged for mileage you do overseas. So the quarterly run down to your little pad in Provence or Bordeaux is gonna rack up a nice little p/p/mile tax cost. Avoid complying in EVERY area of your life. Authorities are your enemy!

The truth in the Ghazipur case is now clearer. The victim, Nisha Vishwakarma, earlier portrayed as raped and murdered by a Brahmin boy in a narrative pushed for political mileage, was seen on CCTV walking alone toward the river, and the post-mortem found no signs of rape or injury, pointing toward suicide. Remember, the Samajwadi Party tried to frame the incident along caste lines and nationalize it for political gain, even as villagers, including members of the girl’s community, resisted these attempts. Such politics, which exploit tragedy for division, only weaken society, and it’s reassuring that people are increasingly rejecting it.

"We've seen a $24,000 de-ice bill in Aspen." "A couple weeks later you get the bill. You're like, 'Wait a minute, I thought I paid for this flight.'" 2.) Event Fees According to Izzy Founder of Craft, private equity firms have been buying FBOs (fixed-base operators, where private jets park + board passengers) & are looking for new ways to increase margins. "What they realized is that they have this monopoly on ramp space on the ground." "Their only way to really squeeze additional margin out of these businesses is to sneak in these event fees." "They've really in the last year or two gotten very egregious." "They could be in the $20,000s or $30,000s or $40,000s just for a short slot to drop off or pick up."

#DemsAct #DemVoice1 #wtpBLUE #ONEV1 #FAM46 For anyone puzzled by persistent inflation numbers. PLEASE WAKE UP. THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT It is NOT as Republicans would have you believe, fiscal mismanagement. It’s their rich donors stealing money from you with impunity. This is something Biden has little to no control of. Unless he takes some important and in my view, very necessary action. There is now irrefutable evidence which shows that high corporate profits are a main driver of ongoing inflation. Companies continue to keep prices high even as their inflationary costs drop. Prices for consumers rose by 3.4% over the past year, but input costs for producers increased by just 1%. When business costs rise the cost is passed on in the blink of an eye. When their costs drop they do NOTHING. Corporations are enjoying windfall profits worth $billions as a direct result of their costs dropping while consumer costs remain static and in some cases increase. The imperative action needed is a significant windfall tax based on the difference between input costs plus a normal margin and current consumer costs. Businesses see every global shock like the pandemic or Russia invading Ukraine, as an opportunity to exploit consumers to increase their margins. As a direct result, the Fed increases interest rates and consumer prices remain high. It’s a lose lose for American families, as yet more money is stole from the bottom and the middle to feed the greed of the rich. This is not a conspiracy theory it is a simple fact. Action needs to be taken, otherwise NOTHING WILL CHANGE as everyday Americans pay for the private jets and yachts of the rich.

Businesses see every global shock like the pandemic or Russia invading Ukraine, as an opportunity to exploit consumers to increase their margins. As a direct result, the Fed increases interest rates and consumer prices remain high. It’s a lose lose for American families, as yet more money is stole from the bottom and the middle to feed the greed of the rich. This is not a conspiracy theory it is a simple fact. Action needs to be taken, otherwise NOTHING WILL CHANGE as everyday Americans pay for the private jets and yachts of the rich.

What a SCAM So California is losing hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue from people buying electric cars and not needing SMOG checks anymore So the state is considering a new program called VSSI checks, Vehicle Safety Systems Inspection checks to be mandatory to make up for the money they are losing This is what’s being talked about in the community of people who own SMOG check businesses, these are the whispers of what’s coming The Vehicle Safety Systems Inspection was launched by the Bureau of Automotive Repair in 2021 Right now it’s not for all vehicles, it’s primarily required for salvage, rebuilt and reconstructed vehicles before DMV registration It goes over things like brakes, lights, steering, suspension, tires, body structure, etc. So the rumors are that Democrats are thinking about making this be the new mandatory check that will replace their SMOG revenue California Democrats need to be removed. They keep doing insane things and you can’t vote them out of office because we all know they rig the elections This check is what will likely be used later on to check your mileage for the mileage tax. I bet it’s all connected

This clip is peak irony Behind this reporter are California residents protesting ICE The day before California Democrats quietly forced through a per mile mileage tax on all vehicles Imagine if protesters actually protested what matters…. This new tax will be for ALL vehicles, not just EVs “So the people here protesting against ICE have absolutely no idea that their rights were completely violated yesterday by the California State Legislature. In the Assembly, the Democrats, by a simple majority vote, voted to advance a potential per mile tax. Yeah, that's not a conspiracy theory. That's not a rumor. They just tasked a California Transportation Commission to come up with recommendations by 2027 to be able to implement a per mile tax that would charge you 2 to 9 cents for every single mile that you drive. And you know why that's insane? Because we're talking about families of two or maybe even three paying an extra of $1,200 to $4,200 every single year just to drive” The proposed per-mile tax (often called a Road Usage Charge or mileage-based fee) in California would apply to non-EV vehicles as well, not just electric vehicles.
