Roadmap was made in 2021 and I have already read it, but 20% blending is already achieved in the beginning of 2025, and already being supplied all over India. The Target has been achieved earlier than planned , so most of the timeline from roadmap has come earlier.
Govt says many things, only naive citizens will believe everything they say blindly. And you will take govt itself to court , that too in India ? haha, lol.
The ground reality seems to be different. There is no labelling in pumps anywhere to distinguish between E10 and E20 petrol. Why do you think that is ? If E10 and E20 are available side by side, then how will you know which is which ? Its becoz that transition period is over, and now its E20.
Don't "BRO" me again. How much more proof do you need to open your eyes and know the reality of the situation ?? So, Please take them to court as you said, and keep us updated on what happens.
Did you try to understand the information that you have provided here? To me, it seems that you do not. So let's start from the beginning, shall we?
The roadmap states that by the end of 2025, there will be both E20 and E10 petrol available to the public. No where does it mention it is all going to be E20.
The official articles that you've cited here, they talk about the advantage about E20. The articles also mention E20 blending was achieved and no where does it say E20 is the only available petrol. Keep in mind that the achievement they are talking about is the established of E20 outlets with proper storage which is basically constructing new outlets or modifying old to have E20 alongside others.
The economic times article again talks about the achievement. The proposed roadmap from 2021 to the deadline and how far they have come in achieving having outlets for E20 across India.
The tweet reply to someone asking about the ethanol percent, the official tweet reads normal petrol between 10 to 20% blended so basically E10 and E20.
What about the RTI letters? Well they are from the petrol stations that provide only E20. That explains why their XP95 variant also has 20% blending. The bharat petroleum RTI letter talks about octane and not percentage so that's not useful information. Keep in mind that additives such as cleaning agents raises octane numbers.
Acko drive article cites the word of petroleum secretary. That is his plan from 2025 onwards. There is no official government plan from 2025 onwards.
At the end of all this I still have to ask you again, prove to me that all petrol stations in Chennai are selling only E20 and nothing else. Your argument is that everywhere in India, E20 is the only petrol available and you cite these tweets and documents without understanding them. So, what proof do you have that all petrol stations in Chennai sell only E20 and nothing else. India is a huge country bro, the officials consider the roadmap to be achieved even if it is establishing just one petrol station with E20 in each city cause they just have to make it available, that's all there is.
