Dear @HardeepSPuri ji, at this point, people are genuinely wondering whether you’re still leading the Petroleum Ministry, because it increasingly feels like no one is listening to or taking the Petroleum Minister seriously. A disappointing situation for citizens who expect accountability.
Maruti launched an E85-powered WagonR, but the price tag makes absolutely no sense. It costs ₹85,000 more than the regular (E20) version.
Why would anyone pay a premium upfront just to get higher daily running costs?
When you pay extra for an EV or a CNG car, it is a smart move because the fuel is cheap and you save money in the long run. The E85 WagonR does the exact opposite:
E85 fuel looks great at the pump because it is roughly ₹20 cheaper per L than regular petrol. But then, ethanol has less energy than petrol, causing the car's mileage to drop by a massive 30% to 40%.
Because the mileage drops so drastically, you end up burning way more fuel just to travel the same distance. The fuel discount is instantly wiped out, leaving you with a higher daily driving bill than a standard petrol car.
So, who is this actually for? No buyer is going to hand over an extra ₹85,000 just to get terrible mileage, spend more money every single week, and deal with the massive headache of hunting down rare E85 fuel stations in India.
Your fifth-generation leader can travel the world, dive deep into any ocean, and yet can't win a hundred seats with a party that has a legacy of more than a hundred years.
Today I filled my tank with X95 petrol costing 120.81/ litre.
That's what I am going to do now.
Don't buy cars, don't buy bikes.
Let the auto industry collapse, let the sugar industry collapse.
Give them the taste of their own shitty policies.
FII's have done that by pulling off the money from capital markets.
Now they are begging FII to come back.
Now its time for citizens to fight for their own welfare.

First time I have heard somebody of Ramakrishna Mission's Sanyasi to speak the truth so boldly.
Enough with Ahinshaa of Md. Gandhi tought to us !!
"No European country has been attacked with Indian Weapons... So Keep that in Mind"...!!!
I think Europe was not expecting that answer from Minister @DrSJaishankar 👏
"INDIA IS SECULAR BECAUSE INDIA HAS 80% HINDUS" proven right once again.
- A young Parsi woman studying in a college in Gujarat married a muslim professor who was 15 years older than her despite opposition from her family many years ago.
- The Parsi woman did not convert to Islam after the marriage and continued to practice her original faith. Fast forward to present time, she was 55 years old and died after brief illness.
- When her muslim husband went to members of Parsi Community and asked them to perform her final rites as per Zoroastrian traditions, they refused because of inter faith marriage.
- When the husband approached the members of his own muslim community to bury his wife as per Islam, they also refused.
- Her husband approached Vishwa Hindu Parishad and they did funeral of this woman as per Hindu rites who was neither Hindu by birth nor Hindu by marriage. They did not think twice and only felt proud of what they were doing.
- Isn't it shameful that organisations like VHP and Bajrang Dal are compared to terrorist groups by liberals and muslims of this country???
For the first time in a long time, I heard a politician talk about politics differently — and it genuinely caught my attention.
I'm writing this as a common man, not as a TVK supporter.
I just finished watching the full interview of Annamalai after he officially resigned from BJP and launched his new movement.
Whether you support him or not, one thing in that interview really grabbed my attention.
He spoke about bringing a completely different political culture.
For years, one question has been in my mind.
Every IAS aspirant has to clear prelims, mains, and interviews.
Doctors spend years studying and training.
Government employees work hard to earn their positions, and they all have a retirement age.
But why does the same principle not apply to politics?
Politicians are elected by the people for a fixed term, yet we often see the same faces remaining in power for decades.
In Tamil Nadu, we have seen political families continue from one generation to another.
Grandfather, son, grandson — the same families remain in politics while new people struggle to get opportunities.
That is why Annamalai's proposal caught my attention.
He spoke about introducing term limits for political positions, including MLAs, Ministers, and even Chief Minister candidates.
Honestly, if implemented properly, this could be a welcome change.
It would create opportunities for younger leaders and bring fresh ideas into politics.
Another proposal I found interesting was the idea of training candidates before they contest elections.
Many people enter politics without fully understanding governance, administration, or the responsibilities of an elected representative.
Having a proper training system for future MLAs and leaders sounds like a positive step.
For years, I have asked these questions but never found a convincing answer.
Now, for the first time, I am hearing someone openly discuss them.
Whether this movement succeeds or not will depend on how these ideas are implemented.
But the discussion itself is important.
So, I genuinely wish Annamalai all the best for his new movement.
Tamil Nadu politics needs new ideas, healthy competition, and meaningful debates.
One more thing.
I feel both DMK and AIADMK should take these developments seriously.
The political landscape is changing rapidly.
Young voters are looking for alternatives, new leadership, and different political models.
Those who are not attracted to TVK or Vijay may find Annamalai's ideas appealing.
Because of this, I personally feel Tamil Nadu politics is entering a new phase where coalition and alliance politics could become more important than ever.
These are just my personal thoughts and questions that I have carried in my mind for a long time.
I wanted to share them today.
In an extremely shocking case, locals & BJP have all discovered 100s of cartons and boxes filled of relief materials meant for the poor at TMC MP Bapi Haldar's party office. Police, Central Forces everybody has been called in.
If a religion dehumanised every non believer to the level even the death of a non believer is just a laughing matter, how will they react on camera when asked about it?
Answer :
Neither the CPM nor the Trinamool did it. BJP made it happen in just a few days.
This family spent 50 years without electricity. After hearing their plea,MLA Sourav Sikdar arranged an electricity connection for their home within a short time.
Bro, back when Ranveer Allahbadia randomly popped up on Piers Morgan Show with a picture of Osama Bin Laden & humbled a Pakistani lady & podcaster lmao😭
Old video of Hon. MP Mahua Moitra discussing political violence in West Bengal
Here she says this history of violence has nothing to do with TMC or BJP
Hope she sticks to her views still.
Why do muslims have this great urge to disrespect gods and culture of other communities??
It is not limited to one particular country. They do this wherever they go.
