Kejriwal leads E20 petrol revolt, announces march to Modi's residence over fuel-choice demand
Rozana Spokesman reported that on August 1, 2026 Kejriwal demanded consumers be allowed to choose between pure petrol and E20 ethanol-blended fuel at pumps, called for the government to publicly release vehicle safety studies, and announced a march to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Lok Kalyan Marg residence on August 4. The campaign taps a wider backlash: AFP, via Gulf News, reported on July 10, 2026 that the E20 blend had sparked protests in New Delhi over fears of reduced mileage and engine damage, which the oil ministry rejected while conceding a 3-5 percent drop in fuel economy.
