Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri has pushed back against social media claims that E20 ethanol-blended fuel attracts pests or damages engines, calling such rumours unfounded. He noted that the use of ethanol as a fuel is a concept over a century old and pointed to prior government initiatives promoting it. Tests conducted by ARAI and original equipment manufacturers have found only a marginal decline in fuel efficiency with E20. Toyota separately clarified that a reported vehicle issue linked to the fuel was actually caused by fuel contamination, not ethanol content. Puri stated he welcomes genuine criticism but stressed that misinformation should not be allowed to spread unchecked.

The changes come as China continues to intensify pressure on the self-governed island.
