Stop Forced E20 Petrol Implementation – Give Indians the Choice of 100% Pure Petrol
The Issue
India is moving towards E20 petrol, but millions of vehicle owners have concerns about compatibility, mileage, maintenance costs, and long-term vehicle health. We request the Government of India to ensure that 100% pure petrol (E0) remains available along with E20 petrol, allowing citizens the freedom to choose fuel according to their vehicle requirements.
We, the citizens of India, respectfully request the Government of India to reconsider the compulsory implementation of E20 petrol and ensure the continued availability of 100% pure petrol (E0) as an alternative option.
We appreciate the Government’s efforts to promote renewable energy, reduce dependence on imported crude oil, and support farmers through ethanol production. However, fuel policies should also consider consumer choice, vehicle safety, and long-term economic impact.
Why We Are Concerned
1. Vehicle Compatibility
A large number of vehicles currently running on Indian roads were manufactured before E20 fuel became common. Vehicle owners are concerned about possible long-term effects on fuel systems, rubber components, engine performance, and maintenance requirements.
2. Consumer Right to Choose
Citizens should have the freedom to select fuel based on:
Vehicle manufacturer recommendations
Vehicle age and technology
Performance requirements
Personal economic considerations
A single mandatory fuel option may create difficulties for many consumers.
3. Mileage and Cost Concerns
Ethanol has lower energy content compared to petrol. Some users may experience reduced fuel efficiency, which can increase running costs.
4. Need for Transparent Assessment
A detailed and independent assessment is needed regarding:
Long-term impact on different categories of vehicles
Maintenance costs
Agricultural and water resource requirements
Overall environmental benefits
Our Demands
We request the Government of India to:
✅ Stop making E20 petrol the only compulsory fuel option.
✅ Continue supplying 100% pure petrol (E0) for consumers who require it.
✅ Allow citizens to choose fuel according to vehicle compatibility and manufacturer guidance.
✅ Conduct transparent studies on the long-term effects of E20 fuel.
Our Message
We support India's journey towards clean energy and energy independence. However, sustainable development should also protect consumer rights and provide practical choices.
A balanced approach with both E20 petrol and 100% pure petrol options will benefit citizens, vehicles, and the environment.
Please support this petition and raise your voice for fuel choice and consumer rights.
