In a post on social media, Dhanda said that while many people are directing criticism at Gadkari over ethanol-related issues, the policy itself is the responsibility of the Modi government. He argued that public attention has shifted from concerns over fuel prices and shortages to questions surrounding vehicle compatibility and the use of ethanol-blended fuel.
Dhanda suggested that discussions on ethanol have overtaken the earlier public discourse
Dhanda suggested that discussions on ethanol have overtaken the earlier public discourse on rising fuel prices, with motorists now raising concerns about the impact of ethanol-blended petrol on vehicles and overall running costs.
The remarks reflect Dhanda’s political criticism of the Centre’s fuel policy and come amid continued public discussion over ethanol blending, its implementation, and its implications for consumers and the automobile sector.
