For their own benefit, the government raises taxes, drains people's funds, and makes everything more costly.
As a result of their inability to pay for education, food, and care, people would have fewer children.
A single earner was enough in the past, but now two are needed.
According to the IMF, over half of the world's economies - representing two-thirds of the world's population - now have fertility rates below "replacement level" of 2.1 children per woman. Any lower, and countries quickly become smaller and older.
@sumantbanerji Entire Auto,Bank & insurance lobby is with govt on ethanol.
All of the above benefits from a new car purchased by a consumer and the more frequent the purchase is, the more revenue these three industries get.
Also, the government gets huge tax revenue from selling cars.
He's fixing policies that helps him and his family make money.
Clear cut conflict of interest at the cost of people
But, not one is raising this issue from the opposition.
You know why? Cuz they're all in this together.
They're making a chu out of us!
@Xroaders_001@NsNitinsinha@AbC967041505 Man, you still don't understand. Entire Auto Lobby is part of this game.
- 10/15 Year rule- Production keeps going on.
- Ethanol Damage- More replacement of cars.
- More car need- More Loan + Banks win.
- Low Mileage- More fuel + Taxes.
Ultimately, the consumer is the loser.
@ShivrattanDhil1 The entire auto industry is compromised.
The sugar industry is compromised.
The opposition is compromised because they have ethanol related businesses.
The only affected here is consumer.
The entire government is working against consumers.
Consumer should make a union.
There are roughly 100 influential automotive journalists in India who help shape public opinion and the direction of the auto industry. Yet not one of them is seriously questioning ethanol blending, E85, isobutanol in diesel, or the long-term impact these policies may have on consumers. The silence is deafening.
Why? Because speaking against powerful interests comes at a cost.
I have experienced it myself. When I criticized Mahindra, people connected to the company started making inquiries about me, my earnings, and even attempted to influence me.
Now there are efforts to pursue defamation claims. When I spoke about Tataโs vehicles, I was subjected to personal attacks, and event invitations for my team were affected. Recently, after posting a video about ethanol, I received pressure and threats that ultimately led to the video being taken down.
This is why I openly say that much of the automotive media ecosystem is compromised. Paid promotions, paid tweets, and sponsored narratives are far more common than people realize. I know how these systems work, and I believe that is one of the reasons why very few are willing to speak critically about ethanol-related policies.
The reality is that millions of consumers will be affected by these decisions. Donโt wait for journalists to be your voice people must speak for themselves.
As for me, I will continue to ask questions and share my views. I have never done paid posts, and I never will. No amount of pressure, influence, or money will change that! ๐๐ป
@venkat_fin9 People should stop their new car purchase just for 3 months and the entire auto industry crumbles with revenue dip and inventory pile up.
How long can the government act against the public without considering their well-being?
It is a high time consumer to make a stand.
@MyVadodara Damage public cars by coercing them to shift to Ethanol.
Force consumers to pay the cost of conversion to ethanol.
Why is this govt against the public so much?

@volklub Indian car buyers should halt their purchases for just three months. This would cause auto manufacturers' revenues to plummet and their inventories to swell, potentially leading them to pressure Gadkari.
