What exactly is an E20-compliant vehicle? By definition, it's a vehicle engineered to safely and reliably run on E20 fuel. That also implies a non-E20-compliant vehicle is not designed for E20. Otherwise, the term "compliant" becomes meaningless.

So my question to Mr. @nitin_gadkari is simple: Why was E20 fuel rolled out nationwide when most vehicles on Indian roads were not E20-compliant?

If the answer is, "Nothing happens. Non-compliant vehicles can also run on E20," then what was the rationale behind mandating manufacturers to produce E20-compliant vehicles in the first place? Either E20 compatibility is technically necessary, in which case introducing E20 before the vehicle fleet was ready was questionable. Or it isn't necessary, in which case the compliance requirement itself appears redundant.

You can't simultaneously argue that E20 compliance is important enough to mandate for new vehicles, yet claim it doesn't matter because older, non-compliant vehicles can run on E20 anyway.

By the same logic, why stop at E20? Why not go full aatm-nirbhar and switch directly to E100? If compatibility doesn't matter, then non-E100-compliant vehicles should run on E100 too. Clearly, that's not how engineering works. So where exactly is the technical justification?

North Indians don't name.their kids Subramanian just as south Indians don't name their kids Kanhaiya or Kishan. A person is called Unnikrishnan in Kerala and someone is called Kanha in UP. But they are both named after Krishna. Shiva is called Bholenath in the north and Annamalaiyar in TN but they refer to the same force. Local culture and linguistic influences lend different names in different regions. Our civilization settled these ideas without internet or Twitter

Indians wondering why Europeans can’t handle 35 degrees of heat

Europeans wondering why Delhi at 5 degrees is life threatening

Both the places aren’t built for such weather

The US went into Vietnam to end communism, and by the end of it, communism only grew stronger.
The US went into Afghanistan to end Soviet rule, funded Osama bin Laden, who ended up creating al Qaeda that eventually attacked the Twin Towers.
The US invaded Iraq, captured Saddam, executed him, but instead of bringing peace, it only created extremist groups like ISIS, an offshoot of al Qaeda, which became the most lethal terrorist group in the world.
The US and NATO invaded Libya, killed Gaddafi, but instead of bringing peace, they caused a refugee and humanitarian crisis.
The US invaded Afghanistan after 9/11 to kill Osama bin and dismantle the Taliban. Twenty years and trillions of dollars later, it brought back the Taliban.
The US invaded Iran on February 28 to remove the religious leadership and bring about regime change. It ended up making the leadership even stronger.
Every war that the US starts only ends up creating more chaos and instability. And I thought policemen were supposed to bring order.

Uncle, enough of the bromance.
Tell us how you'll respond to the killing of our 3 citizens by Trump.

It's a Sunday, but everyone is busy.
US is busy making their frontier models strategic resources.
China is busy creating AI models with restricted chip supply.
We are busy seeing how much ethanol we can stuff into petrol.

@AmazonHelp Disappointing service. Wasted over 30 minutes on chat only for it to be abruptly disconnected with no resolution. It felt like the agent didn't even read my concern.
I was asking about apples, and they kept giving me oranges. Please escalate this to someone senior?
@amazonIN

[Subranshu Patel @SubranshuP]

@amazonIN
When I order via amazon now, the order is immediately cancelled. When I order via amazon fresh a delivery fee of 29 is always added irrespective of any time in day/night.
Please look into the same ASAP.

[Subranshu Patel @SubranshuP]

@AmazonHelp Such a poor service. Issue isn't resolved and your customer service left the chat citing that she can't provide any more support. Pathetic!

[Subranshu Patel @SubranshuP]

@AmazonHelp @amazonIN Neither received the mail nor in the message center

@amazonIN
Charged delivery fees on a ₹344 Amazon Fresh order despite the app showing FREE delivery above ₹99. When challenged, customer care claimed the limit is ₹499. Why is Amazon's support team misleading customers and contradicting information shown in the app?

The Ganga expressway accident is proof yet again that opposite lane driving is a deadly killer. All entry and exit points must be monitored via CCTV on such roads.

And impose a challan twice the cost of the car. Let this message go far and wide of the financial loss involved in a short cut.

[Subranshu Patel @SubranshuP]

@Gourav1104 Interested

[Ramesh Srivats @rameshsrivats]

Boss, increase petrol price all you want. I understand it's needed.
But just stop adding ethanol to it.
I'll pay for the ethanol also, no probs.
Just give it to me on the side.

Disappointed with my latest order from @ApolloPharmacy. Paid for a 3-pack of wellness multivitamins, but only received 2.

Ordered oil from @Swiggy @instamart_it and this is what I received. The bottles are filthy, sticky, and arriving with a near-expiry date of 18-jun & 30-Jun. This is a clear violation of hygiene and safety standards. How is this being dispatched to customers?
