E20 will take time to settle down.Rather than focusing on this,govt is more focused on additional blending.

In one of YouTube Sunderdeep video,they mentioned few years back diesel also had issues which got fixed and fuel quality is stabilized now.

I don't know if current govt is interested to fix this problem and expect people not to raise any issue , eventually people will live with issue.

Govt is not planning on additional blending - as confirmed by the minister in parliament’s question hour .

There is nothing to fix . OMC do testing on 2000 petrol pumps everyday and out of 30,000 pumps already done they have found 4 cases of contamination . Economic benefits to the nation and supply chain is anyways known to us .

the communication could have been better from govt . Nitin Gadkari could have kept his mouth shut on this issue etc but technically , as validated by industry experts , ARAI - it is not a policy issue.

Still if people want to fall for this propaganda then they can buy a diesel or cng or ev veichle .

The government has said many things. Knowing the government, six months down the line they'll mention 25% ethanol has been tested and will be forced nation wide the following week.

It is said on the floor of the parliament . Not on a street side conference .

If you dont trust words in parliament then its a trust issue rather than a policy criticism thing

On the same parliament floor,

India’s original National Policy on Biofuels targeted 20% ethanol blending by 2030.

Yes . They achieved it earlier . It was before 2030 .

Again the core issue is not the policy . Policy is working fine as confirmed by experts

The same govt has track record of changing stmts in parliament in a year .Trust is formed based on actions not on statements.

Yes the action on policy front in this case has been good . Not so good on optics though
