Optimistic by nature.Keeps on cheering every1 up! In the world of selfishness, trying to put in my selfless effort 🙂 although like 2 show mirror to #Hypocrites
Reliance's Parimal Nathwani was Rajya Sabha MP from Jharkhand twice 2008-2020 as Independent MP who got votes of JMM and BJP .... Then from 2020-2026 - He was Independent MP from Andhra Pradesh with support of YSR Jagan ... Now back in Jharkhand with support of BJP .. This time he need 5-6 votes from other party MLAs .... Best of Luck to MLAs of Jharkhand who votes for Parimal ... Sab ko Maha Lakshmi ka Ashirvad mil jayega 😎
Sonam Raghuvanshi got bail within 11 months despite a Murder. No outrage. I bring up cases of crime against men when a man gets punished so that these women also get punished and not because I don't want the man to be punished. But I guess that's too much for you to understand
उत्तरप्रदेश के GST वाले अधिकारियों को फिर से एक बार चेतवानी दे रहा हूँ,
ये फ़र्ज़ी नोटिसों के बेसिस पे जो बिजनेस करने वालों से उगाही कर रहे हो।
ये सब बंद कर दो!
On one hand Mr Modi is urging people to cut every expenses possible including tadka in kitchen n on another 75 judges have been sent to foreign tour accompanied by the law minister.
The fact is there isn’t dearth of money with this country. They have surplus for all nefarious.
Gadkari wants 15% isobutanol blended in diesel by 2026. 🚨 Sounds green… but car owners who already suffered mileage drops from E20 petrol are NOT happy. And yes — his family runs an ethanol business. 👀

Right now, the best advice I can give you as an automotive journalist is to stop buying new cars and bikes, until this #ethanol mess is sorted out. OEMs are too scared to say anything to the government, so this will be one way of pressurising them as well.
Stop fooling people with “cheap fuel” marketing.
Fuel is not cheap because the litre price is lower. Fuel is cheap only when cost per kilometre is lower.
If petrol/E20 at ₹102.12 gives 40 km/l, the running cost is ₹2.55 per km.
Now E85 is being shown as “₹20 cheaper” at around ₹82.12 per litre. Sounds great, right?
But E85 has much lower energy because ethanol carries less energy than petrol. So if mileage drops from 40 km/l to around 29 to 32 km/l, the so-called cheap fuel becomes equal or even costlier per km.
This is the real scam:
Government shows price per litre.
Public pays cost per kilometre.
And this is not just about mileage. Ethanol absorbs water. Water plus oxygen plus metal means corrosion risk. If ethanol-water separation happens inside storage or fuel systems, the bottom layer can become more corrosive and damaging to tanks, pumps, injectors, lines, seals and older fuel-system parts.
Basic chemistry:
Ethanol oxidation can form acetic acid:
C2H5OH + O2 → CH3COOH + H2O
Acid can attack iron:
Fe + 2CH3COOH → Fe(CH3COO)2 + H2
Rust needs iron, oxygen and water:
4Fe + 3O2 + 6H2O → 4Fe(OH)3
So stop calling it cheap unless you publish the full truth:
1. Blend percentage at every pump
2. Vehicle compatibility clearly displayed
3. Expected mileage loss
4. Cost per km, not just price per litre
5. Long-term impact on older vehicles
6. Warranty clarity in writing
If ethanol is truly better, prove it with transparent cost-per-km data. Don’t make citizens pay the same price for lower energy fuel and then tell them it is a national service.
Cheap per litre is marketing. Cheap per kilometre is reality.
Keeping in mind the rising fuel costs in the country, I bought an MG Windsor EV a few months ago. I genuinely believed I was making a smart decision. Unfortunately, what followed has been one of the worst ownership experiences of my life.
About a month ago, while returning from my son's school, a speeding Mahindra Thar rammed into my car from behind. My vehicle was moving at barely 30–35 km/h when the impact pushed it into an Innova ahead. The rear section of the car suffered significant damage.
The very same day, I handed the vehicle over to MG's service center for repairs.
From that point onward, for weeks, I kept making the same phone call:
"When will my car be ready ?"
Every time, I received a different excuse.
Last Saturday , I was informed that the repair work had been completed and only the insurance company's delivery order was pending. I was assured that the order would arrive on Monday and the car would be handed over immediately.
Monday came and went.
By afternoon, having heard nothing, I decided to visit the workshop myself.
And that's when the real story began.
The service advisor responsible for my vehicle didn't even know where the car was parked. After searching across three floors, we finally discovered it in the basement.
What I saw there left me speechless.
The car was in worse condition than it had been immediately after the accident.
At that moment, I realized that my biggest mistake wasn't the accident it was buying an MG. In the last 20 years, I have owned vehicles from almost every major automobile manufacturer. I've dealt with repairs, insurance claims, and service centers countless times. But I have never experienced such disorganization, negligence , and lack of accountability from any company.
Keeping a customer's vehicle for nearly a month, providing misleading updates, and then not even knowing where the car is parked is not poor service it's complete disrespect for the customer's time , trust, and money.
As I was leaving the workshop, I told the advisor "Brother, sell this car for whatever you can get even if I have to take a loss of a few lakhs. I don't have the courage to bring it home anymore. If I ever have to come back to this workshop again, I might genuinely lose my mind."
People may debate how good or bad the MG Windsor EV is as a product.
But as far as MG's after-sales service is concerned, my verdict is final.
This has been, without a doubt, the worst customer service experience I have ever had with any automobile company.
If you're considering buying an MG vehicle, don't just visit the showroom. Spend some time at their service center first. The difference between the two may help you make a much better decision.

Keshav Negi did not get bail & has been sent to jail for 14 days in judicial custody. A 65 yr old poor chef is rotting in jail while corrupt municipal officials who allowed that illegal death trap to run are probably enjoying air conditioned rooms.

My grandfather once told me that his parents gave a room on rent to a muslim couple with 2 children.
Initially, everything was fine. But three years later, that muslim woman had given birth to three more children. The husband started sleeping on terrace with his elder son. It was almost like encroachment.
So, my great grandfather advised the muslim man to leave their house and shift to a bigger place.
Just few days later, the muslim man filed a case and claimed that he is the original owner of the house and my great grandparents were living as tenants. Other muslim neighbours were presented as witness.
My great grandparents won the case after four years. And since then he maintained the distance from Abduls for the rest of his life and taught his son (i.e. my grandfather) this mantra "Puncture Putram, Kabhi Naa Mitram" and my grandfather has passed this invaluable knowledge to us.
So, when Abduls tell stories about not getting a flat on rent in societies mainly having Hindus, I only laugh at their stories. And I wonder, why don't muslims go to muslim areas if they want to rent a house??
Call him a nepo kid or what you want, but in less than 7 years, this man has revolutionised women’s cricket. He has done more than all those great MCC and ICC officials who ran cricket for decades. Had he been an Englishman or an Australian, he would have been knighted for his services to cricket.
Flight was delayed for SG939 was delayed for 3.5 hours and shameless @flyspicejet did not bother to provide any refreshments to passengers. On board as well there were no hot beverages or food items to be purchased! @DGCAIndia

Cars24 did this test on BS4 Swift. E20 vs XP100.
With E20 petrol they got a mileage of around 15 kpl with AC. They also experienced engine noise and slightly less effective air conditioning.
With XP100 petrol, they got a a mileage of around 22 kpl with AC.
No wonder, Cars24 had to delete this post later.
