138 million Litre of petrol is consumed in India Daily.
27.6 million of it is Ethanol.
₹57.97 is the cost of 1 litre of Ethanol.
₹1,599,972,000 worth of ethanol is consumed daily in the country.
Too big an amount to NOT dismiss the PIL.
When you fill E20 Petrol you are helping this hardworking gentleman Nikhil Nitin Gadkari make a living.
His company CIAN Agro had revenue of just ₹17 Cr in Jun 2024 quarter. In one year, that became ₹511 Cr. A small jump of only 2905%.
The stock that was ₹43 last year is now ₹668. So keep filling E20, you’ll be helping him grow faster, and proudly contribute to Modified India.
Your engine may die, but you are going to power the dreams of an entrepreneur like Nikhil in return. Keep filling E20!
The claim that producing 1 liter of ethanol from sugarcane in India requires about 2,860 to 3,630 liters of water is generally accurate, according to recent studies and government data.
So for a 20% ethanol blend in 1 liter of petrol (200 ml ethanol), you'd need roughly 572–726 liters of water, making the 600-liter figure reasonable for that specific calculation.
For a 50-liter tank with 20% ethanol, the total water required would be around 28,600–36,300 liters, not 3,000 liters as was stated—looks like an underestimation in the viral tweet.
Finally, while sugarcane-based ethanol is indeed more water-efficient compared to maize or rice, it's still a significant water user and raises real sustainability concerns for India's water-scarce regions.

Rs200 loss on Rs1000 worth of Petrol.
More money and petrol needs to be burnt to travel the same distance.
Who is benefiting @nitin_gadkari@HardeepSPuri??
I don't give a fuck about Cholas, or Mughals, or Marathas.
Neither should you.
I give a fuck about ethanol blended petrol, broken infrastructure, corrupt politicians/bureaucracy, sold out media etc.
So should you.
