Ethanol will hurt the BJP electorally, not because of car owners, the are just 8% of the population, but because of bike owners, who make up 60%.
Every issue with a bike, irrespective of whether it's due to ethanol or not, is being blamed on ethanol. Remember that the overwhelming majority of car and bike mechanics are not your voters and, in fact, they hate you and you know why. They are actively telling anyone with any bike issue that it is due to ethanol. Not only does it serve a political purpose, but it is also easy and convincing.
Car and bike dealers are equally happy to lean into this excuse because it completely deflects blame away from the manufacturers and their own service centers. If a part fails prematurely or a vehicle suffers from a chronic engineering defect, blaming ethanol allows dealers to shift the responsibility onto government policy rather than admitting to poor build quality or honoring warranty claims. It gives them a convenient, politically charged scapegoat that customers readily accept, shielding the automotive brands from reputational damage.
It's up to the BJP to smell the coffee. The issue is no longer on Twitter and no longer raised just by English-speaking metro car owners. It has gone to the ground. There is still time to wake up and make corrections.
P.S. I'm not defending ethanol here. It does damage engines and parts. I've been strongly opposing it and will keep doing so. I'm only saying what's happening on the ground. The BJP should do a course correction on ethanol solely because its implementation was wrong and correcting it is only logical. However, since politicians see every controversy from the standpoint of electoral gains and losses, I'm telling them that it will hurt them electorally too.
धर्मेंद्र प्रधान के अनुसार जो भी पेपर लीक का विरोध कर रहे हैं वो "देशद्रोही" हैं।
नितिन गडकरी के अनुसार जो इथेनॉल का विरोध कर रहे हैं वो "लॉबीज" हैं।
मतलब इन स्वघोषित ईमानदारों के अनुसार, विरोध करने वाली कोई भी "आम जनता" नहीं है।
जितने वीडियो देख रहा हूँ लोगों के, जो पेट्रोल पम्प से सीधे बोतलों में पेट्रोल भरवा रहे हैं, उनमें से अधिकांश तो ऐसा दिखता है कि सरकार ने संभवतः E85 को E20 के नाम पर डालना आरम्भ कर दिया है।
फ्यूल और एथनॉल का सेपरेशन दिख रहा है। एक जगह देखा उसका रंग गुलाबी है ना कि डार्क ऑरेंज। कहीं तो लीची के जूस जैसा रंग भी दिखा।
यह अविश्वास इसलिए भी है क्योंकि @nitin_gadkari, @HardeepSPuri और @PMOIndia ने बिना किसी जागरूकता अभियान के, या उपभोक्ता सहमति के, पेट्रोल कह कर E20 हमारी टंकियों में डलवाना चालू कर दिया था, दो साल बाद पता चला कि ये तो पेट्रोल है नहीं और हमारी गाड़ी भी उसके लिए उचित रूप से तैयार नहीं है।
अब @narendramodi बताएँ कि ये क्या बिक रहा है पम्प पर? क्या पेट्रोल पम्प वाले अपनी तरफ़ से भी कुछ घपला कर रहे हैं? स्थानीय पुलिस फिर क्या कर रही है? आप हर बात को चुप्पी या फिर सोरोस का एजेंट कह कर टाल नहीं सकते।

Despite the nationwide shift to E20 petrol, the large majority of vehicles currently on Indian roads estimated at over 80–90%, are not certified as E20-compliant. As we know most of the pre-2023 models were designed only for E10 or lower blends!
For most INDIANs, our vehicle is the second most expensive asset that we will purchase!
Hence:

Families sold land, took loans, & sacrificed everything — only for your corruption & incompetence to snatch their dreams and push them to death. This is state-sponsored cruelty. How many more have to die before heads roll and real reforms happen?

These are not just “suicides.” These are murders caused by systemic failure, greed, and criminal negligence.
The paper leak mafia, who sold the future of these children, and the officers who enabled this rot — you are equally responsible. They died because the system you control betrayed them after they poured their blood, sweat, tears, family savings, and years of life.
Most Indian vehicles aren’t even E20 compatible ..yet Nitin Gadkari ji is forcing 100% ethanol norms on us!
We the people pay full price for our vehicles + we pay road taxes, insurance, tolls, GST on vehicles, parking, GST on spares, basically or lot of money for everything that one can think of! And yet in return we get Pathetic roads, mostly terrible infrastructure, traffic jams and now fuel that destroys the engines and kills mileage of our vehicles!
Meanwhile we all know that most sugar mills owned by netas & their families and it is their linked companies that are minting crores from ethanol distilleries.
Let's cut out the BS, this is a straight-up Ethanol Scam! And while we INDIANs have to pay a price & yet suffer, these netas profit and make money! Also say if one wants non blended fuel instead of this nonsensical E-20, E-30 or E-100 why can't we be given that?

Students deserve better. Reform now! #NEET#PaperLeak#EducationCrisis
The repeated CBSE debacles expose a harsh reality — technology has advanced rapidly, but our ministers & bureaucrats lack the capability to implement & secure it. Paper leaks, system failures, and chaos have become annual affairs.
NEET paper leaks are not just scandals — they destroy futures & erode trust in one of India's biggest exams. The core issue? Tech has evolved, but governance hasn't. Incompetent implementation by bureaucrats keeps failing our students.
So the so-called Cockroach Protest flopped exactly as expected. Not even a hundred organic supporters turned up, and frankly, that outcome was predictable from day one.
Online activism is easy. All you have to do is hit follow, repost a few hashtags, and convince yourself you're part of some grand revolution. Real-world mobilisation is a completely different game. Who is going to leave their studies, job, business, or daily routine, travel to Delhi in 42°C heat, and stand on the streets for a cause they don't genuinely care about?
Historically, only two kinds of people show up for protests. First, professional agitators, the NGO activists, comrades, student-politics regulars, self-styled farmer leaders, political aspirants, and others whose entire relevance depends on remaining permanently aggrieved. Second, people who truly believe in a cause and are willing to bear personal costs for it, whether it is religion, reservation, language, or some issue that directly affects their lives.
The Cockroach Janta online ecosystem fits into neither category. Its followers are largely urban youth, students, and working professionals who join such trends because they are fashionable at the moment. It gives them the feeling of participating in something meaningful without requiring any actual sacrifice. The reason they never show up on the streets is simple: they are not suffering in real life to the extent they claim online.
Today's turnout exposed the gap between social media noise and ground reality. Viral posts, trending hashtags, and inflated follower counts create the illusion of a mass movement. The moment people are asked to step away from their screens and show up physically, the illusion collapses.
Hopefully, the Cockroach Party leadership received a much-needed reality check. Online gimmicks do not automatically translate into real-world support. In fact, Delhi has seen larger organic gatherings for street dogs opposing a Supreme Court ruling than the combined strength that assembled at Jantar Mantar today.

Every nepo kid mantri be it Dharmendra Pradhan ji or Kiren Rijiju their kids study abroad ! But like cockroaches or mosquitoes young Indian kids, their lives are ruined and the exemplary punishment "Chairperson & Secretary CBSE" is transferred! Not kicked out, Dharmendra Pradhan ji wont be sacked & babus will be gently transferred ! $h¡Th●l€ of governance!
1) NEET UG 2026 paper leak.
2) CBSE OSM flaws.
3) CUET-UG glitch.
4) One-sided UGC equity regulations.
Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan cannot keep distancing himself from every failure that occurs under institutions reporting to the Ministry of Education.
When exam papers are leaked, when technical glitches disrupt exams, when evaluation reforms trigger widespread concerns, and when one-sided regulations are pushed, the problem is no longer isolated incidents. It becomes a question of governance.
The Ministry of Education cannot keep treating every failure as a standalone event. At some point, a pattern demands scrutiny.
Why are millions of students repeatedly asked to place their future in systems that continue to face questions over transparency, preparedness, and accountability?
Why are reforms implemented first and defended later, instead of being thoroughly tested, audited, and stress-tested before affecting an entire generation?
The National Testing Agency (NTA) was established to make examinations more efficient, credible, and fair. Yet every major failure and lapse further weakens students' trust in the system.
A Govt that asks its youth to compete relentlessly must first guarantee them a system they can trust completely.
Students are expected to face the consequences of every mistake they make. Why should the Education Minister be any different? If accountability means anything, Dharmendra Pradhan should resign.
सिस्टम ऐसे ही रिवार्ड करता है। युवराज की मृत्यु का दायित्व जिस अधिकारी पर था, उसको भी बढ़िया प्रमोशन मिला है। एक पर घूस का आरोप लगा था, उसको जेनरल एडमिनिस्ट्रेशन में भेजा दिया है। भाजपा ऐसे लोगों को खोजती है।
एक को निकाला है, वह भी 2008 की थी, जिसे अब हटाया गया है। 2014 के बाद की रहती तो उसे पीएमओ में रखवा देते।
