E20 सिर्फ petrol में Ethanol blending नहीं है…ये किसानों की income, crude oil imports और India की Energy Security से जुड़ी बड़ी policy है. 🇮🇳⛽

This ethanol blending in petrol has been not done overnight. It is a measured, scientifically driven, step-by-step process.
In 2013 and 2014, we were blending about one and a half per cent ethanol in gasoline. And this programme was targeted to have 20% blending, which is E20, completed in December 25, five years ahead of the target.
This programme, the ethanol blending programme, particularly in 2018, was in a structured manner, put out for discussion and deliberation by all stakeholders. It is supported by scientific evidence, extensive testing by the automotive, manufacturers and the agencies who support them, namely the Automotive Research Association of India, ARAI and SIAM, and also it is in line with the global best practices which is followed to green the fossil fuels to lower the carbon emissions."

The “10,000 Litres of Water” Myth
Claim: "1 litre of ethanol requires 10,000 litres of water." — False
Facts: Ethanol uses only surplus rice after national food security needs are met.
Modern ethanol plants consume just 3–5 litres of processed water per litre of ethanol and recycle it through Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems.
Maize, now contributing 40%+ of ethanol production, requires significantly less irrigation than paddy.
Higher maize MSP is encouraging farmers to shift towards a more water-efficient crop, supporting sustainable ethanol production.
