Govt Defends E20 Ethanol Blend Amid Political Pushback

BJP MP Tarun Chugh defended the E20 fuel policy, saying that all scientific studies and field trials have confirmed its safety and efficacy. He noted that several countries have used ethanol‑based blends for decades and that India’s implementation follows the same scientific standards. Chugh accused Kejriwal of politicising an issue that has already been resolved, claiming the leader shows no concern for national interests, motorists or common citizens, but merely seeks to bolster his own political base.
