I was doing a simple analysis on Modi vs RaGa last 4 years social media sentiment assessment. The recent results should give a shock to @narendramodi ‘s social media team.
1. Overall engagement is declining for #narendramodi
2. Overall positive engagement is increasing for RaGa

@sarviind Height of idiocy again! Please don’t spread fake propaganda! This car is already E20 compliant

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

@CJP_for_India This shows idiocy is inside CJP’s gene!

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

Don’t know why @narendramodi @PMOIndia not taking this E20 fuel issue seriously. If they are taking it seriously, then it’s not evident yet. Hope they understand that it’s not only about economic value to our export bill and possible benefits to farmers (which is still questionable); but it’s more about emotional value to ordinary Indians for whom a 2 wheeler and 4 wheelers are still very much part of their emotion. A fear of damaging their vehicles and a fear of changing to new vehicles sooner are causing a big dent in public confidence. Govt should look at this policy in the following way:

1. Keep E20 fuel as standard across petrol.
2. Anything above that should be called under flex fuel policy for which different ecosystem of vehicles and petrol delivery at pumps should be made available
3. Give consumers choice between pure petrol, E20 and Flex fuel.

Make these communication clear. In the name of economical benefits, the communications/perceptions coming from relevant ministries- especially from @nitin_gadkari is causing more damage. In the process, @BJP4India will be hurting its own core base significantly without seeing this evidently.
Wake up and take control of the communications strategy and make sensible policy around it.

I think you have not realised that it’s declared by OEMs only, not dealers. Honda has these compatibility since long years as well. Maruti is providing 4K-6k kits to retrofit the old cars to manage the corrosion issue. Do some research, you will get it. Only concern, govt should not make more than 20% as standard one ! That will be disaster

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

Why these people don’t use their brain before posting such propaganda! When the price was increased by 100 immediately after the war, resulting about 50% increase, and this decrease is relatively insignificant. India just increased by 8-10%, that too much later than the war starting time. If your brain understands a bit - learn about how govt treasury absorbed the initial cost and then comment. We will have a time lagged best decrease a little later. Use common sense please

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

@mudit_aggarwal All Volkswagen/Skoda cars are E20 compliant from April 2020 onwards. This is explicitly written in their websites. Why people are making confusion !!! Ask your car dealer service team this question! Definitely can be a problem for older cars. But not for new ones.

While ethanol blending may have issue, but Byrnihat pollution is a nonsense point. It shows you don’t have any idea about north east and its important location’s history. Byrnihat is one of the industrial area in Meghalaya where many industries like cement factories are present- causing issues for years. Thats nothing new! Learn about North East India first

[Messi FC World @MessiFCWorld]

The president of Cape Verde praised Messi and announced a special tribute ahead of the match against Argentina.

“ Messi is a great player, he is highly respected in Cape Verde. For us, he is the best in the world. He represents excellence and perfection in football. It is an honor to face him ,”

He also revealed that the Cape Verdean national team plans to hold a special tribute for the Argentine captain. “ We will give him a Cape Verde jersey with the number 10 and his name on it. It will be a recognition of the best player in the world ,”

@tehseenp What will happen to other politicians who own large number of sugar mills 😊

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

@narendramodi @AmitShah - unless there is separate explicit option for e30 and above in fuel pumps, if govt is planning to mandate e30 as standard fuel option across by 2030- there will be huge backlash from your supporters. I don’t buy this standardised mandate. Keep e20 and all above ethanol blend as separate point of sales options in petrol pump.
@PetroeumMin @nitin_gadkari

@one_by_two Didn’t realise you don’t have this basic knowledge!

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

@lakshaymehta08 Assuming your car is post April 2020, it’s already E20 compliant. Not sure why such confusion!

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

@VlVEK Another super idiotic post!

[Himanshu Jain @HemanNamo]

1/ “E20 is destroying Indian engines.” Viral. Emotional. Wrong. Here is the materials science, court records, and real world data that dismantles this narrative completely

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

No power for sometime again at V Kallahalli, Sarjapur , Bangalore 562125. Not raining here also. What’s the status @NammaBESCOM ?

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

While it’s a great achievement of @narendramodi for being the longest serving PM continuously, we appreciate the achievements and progress seen since 2014; but now a genuine concern is appearing for people like us (who still believe in this Govt) about future wealth growth. Sensex is flat, infact returning negatively last 2 year, MF XIRR return is almost flat for last 2 year. Only stable growth is FDs etc- which is not enough for future wealth creation beating the inflation. I am not seeing a real effort in this area yet. We understand the geopolitical issues, our inability to ride AI wave etc.. but our fundamentals are still strong. Should @FinMinIndia @nsitharaman not think out of box to beat this situation to bring about investor sentiment strongly! This is becoming a genuine concern now! Kind of getting disappointing slowly.

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

Hope this can be executed efficiently! @narendramodi

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

A landmark step towards accelerating India’s industrial growth!

The Union Cabinet has approved Bharat Audyogik Vikas Yojna (BHAVYA). This will enable the development of 100 plug-and-play industrial parks, boosting manufacturing, investment and jobs across the nation. The scheme will significantly enhance Ease of Doing Business through streamlined approvals and single-window systems. It will boost logistics and services sectors too.

@Prakash29968182 Does it mean that if someone in front of me slows down his car and I can simply go right to overtake crashing the already moving car on the right lane! This is absurd excuse! This shows lack of basic civic sense in India!

[Bhargab Dutta @bhargab_d]

@Chanduckhk I think small town people have better civic sense than big towners ! Learn about some basic traffic rules and something called “right of way”.
