In 2005, then Petroleum Minister Mani Shankar Aiyar defended ethanol blending in petrol, saying the UPA government aimed for 10% blending and could increase it to 20%, 30%, 40% or even 50% if ethanol availability improved.
Today, many of the same Congress leaders are attacking the ethanol blending policy being implemented under Union Minister Nitin Gadkari and the Modi government, despite having advocated the same approach while in power.

🚨 Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu declared that "globalisation is dead" after Anthropic banned access to its advanced AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, for all foreign nationals due to US export controls.
He called it a wake-up call for 🇮🇳 India to build its own AI capabilities.

Petrol and diesel up ₹3/litre. Everyone's talking about the price. Nobody's asking the better question — why did it stay frozen for 14 months when crude was volatile?
Because we refine 254 MT/year domestically. Fifth largest refining capacity on the planet. That cushion bought the government 14 months of price stability that most oil-importing countries couldn't manage.
The hike isn't the story. The delay was.
Dear Rajdeep, let me try and explain the fallacy of your argument in a language you understand better- cricket.
Your father late Shri Dilip Sardesai scored 2,001 Test runs. Now let us assumed there is another batsman who scored 1,000 runs in his test career.
Now imagine one day BCCI decides that everyone will get a uniform 50% bonus on their career tally. As a result, Sardesai Sr. Sir career stats go to 3,001 and the other batsman goes to 1,500. But then absolute gap jumps from 1,001 to 1,501.
By your delimitation logic, this is "unfair” and BCCI should have handicapped Dilip Sardesai so the gap doesn't look scary. Perhaps you may want them to dock his Oval and Port of Spain hundreds to make the lesser batsman feel better? Sounds absurd?
But that exactly what you're arguing against uniform delimitation.
Rest HM has said on record that every state will get the same 50% increase and South stays at ~24%.
Nobody's share shrinks and not even one seat is being taken away from the South and given to the North.
How on earth have you discovered that 50% of a bigger number produces a bigger result- do u want another Padma Shri for this breakthrough in mathematics??
On this; “But the Bill doesn't mention a number yet”; bro You've spent 30 years in Parliament's Central Hall. And surely u know bills go through readings. If Home Minister is making a specific floor commitment with the formula to follow is not some conspiracy, but it's called legislative process.
This bill would see debate for sure but then a man doing primary school arithmetic on primetime and packaging it as exposé is too much bro.
Lastly but not the least, the great Dilip Sardesai earned his runs with substance; it is high time that his son should try earning his arguments the same way- with substance and not by repeating the script handed over to you by……u know who!
Sitting in India right now, watching the world burn in real time. US & Israel striking Iran. Iran retaliating across the Gulf. Russia-Ukraine still raging. Pakistan-Afghanistan tensions simmering.
Missiles flying over Tehran, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Qatar.
And here I am, safe at home on a Saturday evening, in a democratic, peaceful country, worrying about none of this at my doorstep.
We don't say this enough - we are incredibly lucky. Not perfect, not without problems. But at peace. That's not a small thing in 2026.
