Kejriwal Urges Goa Voters to Defeat BJP to Pressure Modi on E20 Policy
Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal urged voters in Goa to defeat the BJP in the 2027 assembly elections, claiming this would pressure Prime Minister Narendra Modi to withdraw the E20 fuel policy. Kejriwal criticized Modi's governance style, saying he only responds to electoral outcomes. He highlighted the negative impact of the E20 policy on vehicle mileage and engine damage, especially in Goa, and warned against supporting Congress, alleging its MLAs might rejoin BJP. The BJP and Modi government have not publicly responded to these claims.
