Let winter arrive, Ethanol is going to create one of the biggest problems in high-altitude regions, and hardly anyone is talking about it.
After 15 years in motorsport and travelling across the Himalayas, I can say this in written. Let winter arrive, and places like Leh, Spiti, and other parts of Himachal will face the real impact.
At temperatures touching -30°C in Spiti, even normal petrol used to struggle. We often carried octane boosters to improve cold-weather performance. Petrol was still more reliable than diesel, which could gel in extreme conditions.
Now imagine fuel that absorbs moisture. In freezing temperatures, that moisture can freeze, restrict fuel flow, block fuel lines, crack pipes, and prevent ignition altogether. A vehicle can become completely immobile when it’s needed the most.
For nearly six months every year, people in these regions depend on petrol vehicles for medical emergencies, essential supplies, and daily life. Fuel isn’t a luxury there it’s a lifeline.
This is a serious technical issue that nobody seems to be discussing today. People will only realise & suffer the consequences when winter arrives!! ☺️🙏🏻

Pandey ji, your mindset is a problem.
And not just you, there are millions like you in India.
Just answer this:
If the business makes a loss, should the employer deduct it from the employee's salary?
Should the employer ask employees to invest their own money and take the same financial risk?
Do you know how many businesses are bleeding cash every month, yet still pay every single employee on time?
Ownership is not about sharing profits.
It's about how you show up.
Instead of asking, "Where's my share of the profit?", ask yourself:
"How do I become so valuable that this company can't afford to lose me?"
Skill up.
Take initiative.
Solve problems that aren't even in your job description.
Become irreplaceable.
Then ask for more compensation.
If your employer doesn't value you, someone else will.
Too many people want the rewards before they create the value.
And too many are busy watching reels instead of building skills.
This is one of the reasons India is still struggling to be seen as a developed nation.
This is happening in one of India's most developed cities.
And then we ask why our passport is weak, why our global image suffers, and why so many talented people want to leave.
The harsh truth?
India does not have an infrastructure problem anymore.
India has a civic sense problem.
People fight on roads over the smallest issues, ignore basic rules, throw garbage anywhere, and treat public spaces like nobody owns them.
Development is not just skyscrapers, metros, and expressways.
Development is behavior.
Until civic sense becomes a national priority, we will keep building world-class infrastructure with third-world public conduct.
Agree or disagree?
Dear @airtelindia, I am done with you guys. I think I am a high-paying subscriber (2500 per month). A Postpaid user for over a decade now. Never ported out. Have seen poor service, but always gave more chances, and things ended well. BUT I am done now. I have not been able to use the internet on 5G for the last 6-7 weeks and have faced various states and locations in India. I did file a complaint, and your team closed it without resolving it. I am forced to stick to 4G to use the internet, and even then, only after multiple toggles of Aeroplane mode.
What’s happening to people these days? A Tata Curvv (CH01DA0537) was allegedly being driven rashly and repeatedly flashing high-beam lights at a vehicle someone known to me.
Unable to brake in time, the Tata Curvv reportedly rammed into the car from behind. Instead of accepting responsibility, the occupants became aggressive, allegedly attempted to assault the driver, Captured even in Dashcam, and even damaged the car’s windows.
Thankfully, he managed to leave the spot before the situation escalated further.
It’s disturbing to see incidents like this unfold simply because of ego and road rage. A written complaint has already been submitted to Rupnagar Police.
Strict action should be taken against such individuals to ensure the safety of law-abiding citizens and to prevent such behavior from becoming common on our roads.

Keeping in mind the rising fuel costs in the country, I bought an MG Windsor EV a few months ago. I genuinely believed I was making a smart decision. Unfortunately, what followed has been one of the worst ownership experiences of my life.
About a month ago, while returning from my son's school, a speeding Mahindra Thar rammed into my car from behind. My vehicle was moving at barely 30–35 km/h when the impact pushed it into an Innova ahead. The rear section of the car suffered significant damage.
The very same day, I handed the vehicle over to MG's service center for repairs.
From that point onward, for weeks, I kept making the same phone call:
"When will my car be ready ?"
Every time, I received a different excuse.
Last Saturday , I was informed that the repair work had been completed and only the insurance company's delivery order was pending. I was assured that the order would arrive on Monday and the car would be handed over immediately.
Monday came and went.
By afternoon, having heard nothing, I decided to visit the workshop myself.
And that's when the real story began.
The service advisor responsible for my vehicle didn't even know where the car was parked. After searching across three floors, we finally discovered it in the basement.
What I saw there left me speechless.
The car was in worse condition than it had been immediately after the accident.
At that moment, I realized that my biggest mistake wasn't the accident it was buying an MG. In the last 20 years, I have owned vehicles from almost every major automobile manufacturer. I've dealt with repairs, insurance claims, and service centers countless times. But I have never experienced such disorganization, negligence , and lack of accountability from any company.
Keeping a customer's vehicle for nearly a month, providing misleading updates, and then not even knowing where the car is parked is not poor service it's complete disrespect for the customer's time , trust, and money.
As I was leaving the workshop, I told the advisor "Brother, sell this car for whatever you can get even if I have to take a loss of a few lakhs. I don't have the courage to bring it home anymore. If I ever have to come back to this workshop again, I might genuinely lose my mind."
People may debate how good or bad the MG Windsor EV is as a product.
But as far as MG's after-sales service is concerned, my verdict is final.
This has been, without a doubt, the worst customer service experience I have ever had with any automobile company.
If you're considering buying an MG vehicle, don't just visit the showroom. Spend some time at their service center first. The difference between the two may help you make a much better decision.

Mark my words land will be one of the biggest assets in India over the next decade or two.
A relative of mine bought a flat in Chandigarh for ₹28 lakh in 2004 by selling 15 acres of land at just ₹2 lakh per acre.
Today, that same land is worth around ₹92 lakh per acre, while the flat has appreciated to only about ₹1.5 crore.
Just imagine the difference! Urban properties do appreciate, but in the long run, well land can create far greater wealth.
Wherever you buy, land is likely to remain the real game changer! 😉

Today @SkodaIndia Slavia developed jerky acceleration & EPC warning. Service station told injectors were faulty, they are not available in Delhi NCR, will take another 3 days to arrange. This is what happens when you buy a world class car in the capital city of India.
This zebra crossing is insane! In India, zebra crossings, footpaths, pedestrian signals, and slip-road lights often feel like mere formalities. The only things that seem to get proper attention are toll plazas, traffic challans, and speed cameras.
“Just because someone belongs to a farming family doesn’t mean every family member is a farmer. Let me give you an example: my brother works with EY and handles major operations across the UAE. He earns crores every year through his profession.
In fact, when Ratan Tata was alive, he reportedly wanted my brother to take on a major management role within his companies because of his capabilities. So why can’t a family have successful professionals and still own a good house?
Do you have the courage to question corrupt politicians, or is it easier to target farmers? And if farming is such an easy, tax-free goldmine as some people claim, then why don’t they start farming themselves?
I challenge anyone who thinks that way come to my place. I’ll give you 10 acres of land to cultivate free of cost. No rent, no charges.
Earn your ‘tax-free income’ and then tell me how easy it is after working in 47°C heat, facing weather risks, rising costs, and uncertainty.
People with zero knowledge love lecturing farmers! Idiots
And here it is! RIP cars in India! At this point, only an idiot would buy a new car without questioning what lies ahead!
I wouldn’t be surprised if Isobutanol trials have already started, just like ethanol blending did. We’re already hearing of diesel vehicles facing fuel pump failures, DPF issues, and other fuel-related problems.
What’s even more concerning is that many owners of 100% diesel vehicles are already reporting a noticeable drop in fuel efficiency. I’ve personally seen reduced mileage in vehicles like the Toyota Hilux and Innova.
If new fuels are being tested or blended, the public has a right to know. I’m ready to put my own vehicle up for testing, but don’t make millions of vehicle owners unknowing participants in an experiment.
Transparency should come first! 🙏🏻
