Raised multiple complaints, but no action yet. Can’t believe this is a Bangalore road. Munnekolal CS Road connects several areas and is used by thousands daily. Please look at the condition & take action before more people get hurt. @bbmpcommr@ICCCBengaluru@blrcitytraffic#help
.@nitin_gadkari Please visit World Trade Centre, Kharadi on a weekday and travel with me in my car in the evening. We’ll start at 5 PM, and I’ll show you how long it takes to cover 30 km. If we reach in under 90 minutes, you win.
It’s 2026. Please stop making such claims. People aren’t going to fall for them anymore.
@RajneetiTadka The lady crossing without checking the sorrounding is definitely at fault. But the People driving fast when there is a visible zebra crossing, are worse.
A video of a commuter arguing with a traffic police officer at Bengaluru’s Hebbal Bridge has gone viral, after traffic was stopped for a VIP/political convoy on August 9.
According to the commuter, vehicles were held for more than 30 minutes as the convoy passed. During the wait, he also heard a siren, which he said could have been an ambulance.
Frustrated by the prolonged stoppage, the commuter raised his voice at the officer managing traffic.
He later said his concern was not about the officer personally, but about how VIP movements are managed, particularly when commuters could be dealing with medical emergencies, rushing to the airport or facing other urgent situations.
The incident has once again raised questions about the impact of VIP movements on Bengaluru’s already strained traffic.

I received a call from the TOP OFFICIALS of the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas.
They have invited TEAM BHARAT for a meeting in the next 3-4 days to discuss Petrol Pricing & availability of choice of Petrol.
TEAM BHARAT looks forward to this meeting.
We are grateful to the Hon'ble Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas shri @HardeepSPuri ji sir .
TEAM BHARAT believes in dialogue & believes firmly India's national interest, energy security and foreign reserves can be protected along with the interests of We The People, the Citizens of India. Both can go hand in hand.
Team Bharat won't let anyone down that's a promise.
Grateful to the Union Government for the outreach and also Citizens of India for the support and faith in us.

@traumatizerr@yabhishekhd What is the definition social media ? Somewhere people can connect, share media, create online communities, Groups, channels. And all of these are available on WhatsApp.
Our reach has dropped by 95% by twitter in the last 24 hours.
If you’re seeing this post, comment “E20” so we know it’s reaching real people. Every comment helps boost visibility.
@volklub Rather than going fully wireless, a better solution would be for cars to have a rear port that's internally connected to the front. It would let you connect both dashcams without routing wires all over the cabin or removing the rubber beading.
“In a recent interview, Shri @nitin_gadkari ji said that if you want petrol without ethanol, it’s available you can fill ₹168-per-litre premium petrol.
Today, I got my tank filled with that fuel. The bill? ₹7,800 for one tank.
On a regular basis, I use E20, which costs me around ₹4,500–₹4,800 for a full tank. Even that is a significant expense. I drive nearly 2,000 kilometres every month, and fuel is already one of my biggest monthly costs.
Now imagine asking an average middle-class family to spend nearly ₹8,000 every time they fill their tank.
Is that really a choice?
A choice exists only when the alternatives are reasonably accessible. If one option is priced so high that most people simply cannot afford it, then for the vast majority of citizens, there is effectively no choice at all.
This isn’t about opposing ethanol. It’s about asking a simple question:
Should affordability determine whether a citizen has access to conventional petrol?
Many middle-class families are already managing rising household expenses, education costs, healthcare bills, and EMIs. Expecting them to absorb such a steep increase in fuel costs feels disconnected from the financial reality millions of Indians face.
As citizens, we deserve policies that balance national objectives with consumer rights, affordability, and genuine freedom of choice.
That is the conversation we should be having.”

AN APPEAL TO THE GOVERNMENT
regarding breaking my fast…
Once the assurance from govt come I will also appeal to the peacefully protesting students to halt the movement for now and enter into dialogue with the government
Another Dark Side of Ethanol!! ⛽
There are multiple reports of silencers rusting in relatively new vehicles.
At first, I thought it was happening only to a few vehicles.
Until I became a victim myself.
Both my Activa and my car are just 1 year and 8 months old, and look at the condition of the mufflers ,they're completely gone!
They now sound like V8 engines. Cool, right?
But I'm genuinely concerned about what will happen once these vehicles go out of warranty.
Even though both vehicles are E20-compliant, their silencers have rusted through.
A two-wheeler spare parts dealer told me that he has sold more silencers in the last one year than he did in the previous 20 years.
This time, my car's silencer was replaced under warranty, but the Honda dealership is refusing to replace the one on my Activa.
So who is responsible for this?
Who will pay for these replacements once the vehicles are out of warranty?
If ethanol blending is contributing to this problem, then this policy needs to be reconsidered. Otherwise, many people may feel they have no option but to shift towards EVs.
The minister should have resigned much earlier! This govt could’ve saved face that way, and maybe could’ve even be seen as being accountable and responsible. Now I doubt they can walk away from this without handing a victory to the opposition, or making things worse for themselves!
Spontaneous protests broke out across the country today against this dictatorial regime’s actions.
Hyderabad, Ahilya Nagar, Mumbai, Nagpur
More protests will take place tomorrow onwards!
We request Government of India to appoint Shri Tukaram Mundhe sir as CEO of FSSAI.
Whole India deserves safe and unadulterated food and safe drugs not only maharashtra.
Please Retweet so that it reaches to the government.
