E20 Janta Party Campaigns for Fuel Choice and Gadkari's Resignation in India
The E20 Janta Party, inspired by the Cockroach Janta Party's online activism, has launched a digital campaign demanding consumer choice to buy 100% petrol alongside ethanol-blended fuel in India. The group also calls for the resignation of Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari over the ethanol-blending policy. Supported by transport associations planning protests, the campaign seeks transparent fuel labeling and independent studies on fuel impacts. The government reports no widespread issues with ethanol-blended fuel, while the movement gains traction on social media.
