Claims that India's ethanol blending programme is causing a food crisis don't match the facts. India has reached around 20% ethanol blending while maintaining record foodgrain production. Ethanol is produced from surplus sugarcane, damaged food grains, maize, and other approved feedstocks. The programme has reduced crude oil imports, saved foreign exchange, increased farmers' incomes, and lowered emissions. Even as many Punjab farmers have praised the benefits of maize cultivation and ethanol-linked demand, anti-ethanol narratives have grown louder ahead of elections. The contrast suggests politics may be shaping the debate more than farmers' experiences. India's ethanol mission is strengthening farmers, energy security, and self-reliance.

Every litre of E20 does more than power a vehicle—it strengthens India’s farmers. Ethanol made from sugarcane and maize gives farmers a stronger market, supports better income opportunities and keeps more of India’s fuel money within the country. This is how energy security and rural prosperity move together. Our farmers are no longer only Annadatas. Through ethanol, they are also becoming Urjadaatas—powering India’s journey towards greater self-reliance.

Seen some wild claims about #E20 petrol on your feed lately? Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas #MoPNG has a clear message: Don't fall for the ragebait. ✳️Fuel-grade ethanol used for petrol blending is produced through fermentation and distillation processes that eliminate residual sugars from the final product. ✳️Further, fuel ethanol contains denaturants that are repellent to insects. There is no identifiable attractant associated with E20 fuel that would cause ants or other insects to congregate around vehicle fuel caps. ✳️Ethanol Blending Programme has helped save the country over ₹1.4 lakh crore in foreign exchange through reduced crude oil imports. The programme has also created sustained demand for agricultural feedstocks used in ethanol production, thereby supporting farmers' incomes and strengthening the rural economy.

#WATCH | "This ethanol blending in petrol has been not done overnight. It is a measured, scientifically driven, step-by-step process. In 2013 and 2014, we were blending about one and a half percent ethanol in gasoline. And this programme was targeted to have 20% blending, which is E20, completed in December 25, five years ahead of the target. This programme, the ethanol blending programme, particularly in 2018, was in a structured manner, put out for discussion and deliberation by all stakeholders. It is supported by scientific evidence, extensive testing by the automotive, manufacturers and the agencies who support them, namely the Automotive Research Association of India, ARAI and SIAM, and also it is in line with the global best practices which is followed to green the fossil fuels to lower the carbon emissions," says expert Vartika Shukla at the press conference by industry experts on ethanol.

Toiling for miles to bring smiles. Work in progress by GAIL (India) Limited for laying the Mumbai-Nagpur section of natural gas pipeline which is an integral part of the Mumbai-Nagpur-Jharsuguda project. This pipeline is a part of the National Gas Grid, designed to enhance energy distribution and availability across the country. Development of the National Gas Grid & a wide spread CGD network for connecting consumption centres with supply points will play a crucial role in India's transition into being a gas based economy in which the share of natural gas in our energy mix will increase from 6% to 15% by 2030 under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi Ji.

India imports energy worth about ₹150 billion every year; and as our green energy transition moves steadily ahead under PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji’s guidance, we have now achieved 20% ethanol blending. This in effect means that we were able to save about ₹1,40,000 crore on our import bills. At the same time, even as we diversify the feedstock for ethanol production and now include crops like maize which use less water, we have been able to strengthen the agricultural economy by giving ₹40,000 crore annually to our farmers - thus also transforming our Annadatas into Urjadatas. With energy consumption of nearly 5.6 million barrels per day, India, which will soon be the world's third largest economy under the leadership of PM Modi Ji, is now the world’s third largest energy and oil consumer. International Energy Agency has estimated that in the next two decades nearly 35% of the increase in global demand will come from India. In an answer to a question in Lok Sabha, I also informed the August house of how ethanol blended fuel is a greener alternative with 65% lesser emissions.

Arvind Kejriwal now finds himself at odds with the very farmers of Punjab he claims to represent. On one hand, he opposes E20 fuel. On the other, farmers in AAP-ruled Punjab are supporting ethanol because it creates value from surplus and otherwise wasted grains, opening up an additional source of income. If ethanol is helping farmers earn more while strengthening India’s energy security and reducing dependence on imported crude, why is Kejriwal opposing a policy that benefits both agriculture and the nation? He should decide whether he stands with political opportunism or with Punjab’s farmers.

India's mobility revolution has entered a new chapter. 🇮🇳 Today, along with Shri Nitin Gadkari Ji, we witnessed the launch of Hero MotoCorp's Splendor+ and HF Deluxe Flex Fuel motorcycles, capable of running on ethanol blends from E20 to E85. This is far more than the launch of a new vehicle. It is the convergence of India's energy security mission, our commitment to clean mobility, and our resolve to build an #AatmaNirbharBharat. Over 300 million two-wheelers ply on Indian roads today. Imagine the impact when even a fraction of them begin running on fuel produced from Indian farms rather than imported crude oil. A decade ago, ethanol blending in India stood at just 1.5%. Today, India has achieved 20% ethanol blending, one of the fastest energy transitions anywhere in the world. The benefits are immense. ✅ Reduced dependence on imported oil ✅ Lower foreign exchange outgo ✅ Cleaner transportation ✅ Additional income opportunities for our farmers Every litre of ethanol blended into fuel reduces India's import burden and strengthens our energy independence. Our farmers are no longer only Annadatas. They are increasingly becoming Urjadatas, contributing directly to India's energy future. The scale of this opportunity is extraordinary. Even if flex-fuel vehicles account for just 1% of annual petrol vehicle sales, they can generate demand for nearly 4 crore litres of ethanol every year, resulting in payments of around ₹266 crore to distilleries, savings of approximately ₹195 crore in foreign exchange, and direct economic benefits of nearly ₹160 crore flowing to our farmers. Having witnessed Brazil's successful flex-fuel journey firsthand, I have seen how transformative this technology can be for an entire nation. Today, India begins writing its own success story. A future where Indian vehicles are powered by Indian innovation, Indian farmers, and Indian energy. The road ahead is cleaner. The road ahead is greener. The road ahead is more self-reliant. And that journey has begun.

Fuel is tested at the distillery, depot and pump, with 30,000+ quality checks. ❌ “Only the sugar lobby benefits.” ✅ 501 ethanol suppliers. Feedstock now includes maize, damaged grains and surplus rice. Maize's share has risen to 37%. ❌ “It wastes water.” ✅ Grain distilleries follow Zero Liquid Discharge. Feedstock is shifting away from sugarcane, while only surplus rice is used. ❌ “E25 is coming next.” ✅ No decision beyond E20. Any future move will follow scientific studies and consultations. ❌ “E20 is damaging engines.” ✅ No verified evidence of widespread engine failures or mass recalls. What critics often ignore: 🛢️ 316 lakh tonnes less crude oil imported. 🌍 952 lakh tonnes of CO₂ emissions avoided. ⛽ Helped strengthen India's energy security and reduce import dependence.

Under the leadership of PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji, India has built a resilient and diversified energy ecosystem capable of withstanding global uncertainties. Crude oil and natural gas imports have been strategically diversified across multiple regions, significantly reducing dependence on any single supplier. The govt has also demonstrated its ability to rapidly scale up LPG production during previous crises while steadily expanding the piped natural gas network, a long-term strategy that reduces reliance on LPG cylinders and strengthens India's energy security. At the same time, India's domestic oil and gas exploration and production are set to increase further as part of the Modi Government's vision of achieving greater energy self-reliance. With diversified sourcing, expanding domestic production, and a proven ability to respond effectively during periods of disruption, India is well positioned to navigate continued volatility arising from the situation in Iran under the steady leadership of PM Modi Ji.

India is not merely navigating the global energy transition - it is helping shape its direction. As the world’s 3rd largest energy consumer, 4th largest refiner, and 5th largest exporter, India today plays a central role across oil, gas, biofuels, and emerging clean energy pathways. From scaling biofuels from 1.4% to 20%, to expanding clean cooking access from 14 crore LPG households in 2014 to over 33 crore today, and steadily increasing the role of natural gas, India’s approach balances self-sufficiency with global cooperation.
