Kejriwal Visits Goa, Plans Town Hall on E20 Petrol Policy Concerns
Arvind Kejriwal, AAP national convenor, visited Goa where he offered prayers at the Shree Damodar Temple and planned to address a town hall on the E20 petrol policy. The AAP opposes the mandatory use of E20 fuel, citing concerns from vehicle owners about engine performance and potential damage. The government introduced E20 to reduce emissions and crude oil imports, making it the sole petrol variant nationwide since April 2026. Industry experts maintain E20 is safe for all vehicles.
