Oil minister Puri trashes claims of biofuel harming engines; says E20 petrol safe, eco-friendly

NEW DELHI: Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Tuesday dismissed claims of biofuels damaging automobile engines as rubbish and said petrol blended with 20 per cent ethanol is environmentally safe to use. All the stories you hear about biofuels being harmful for engines, there's a lot of 'BS' - 'B' capital, 'S', capital, and I don't know what that means, but it's a specializer, he said at KPMG's annual energy and resources conclave, ENRich 2025 here. Though he did not specify, he implied a cuss word for 'rubbish'. Petrol blended with 20 per cent ethanol extracted from sugarcane or foodgrains, is safe to use, he said. With all of the 90,000-plus petrol pumps across the country selling only E20 petrol (80 per cent petrol and 20 per cent ethanol), some motorists complained about the impact on older vehicles. Carmakers added to the confusion by initially saying E20 fuel had not been tested for compatibility with older vehicles, but later backtracked to say they were safe to use. Puri and his ministry have repeatedly dismissed fears around the use of E20 as unfounded but said older vehicles may need to replace some rubber parts and gaskets which is a simple process. Puri on Tuesday said the percentage of ethanol blended in petrol in 2014 was 1.4 per cent which has now reached 20 per cent. And I want to put a full stop there. We will now assess where we have to go. All the stories you hear that we are now going to do another leapfrog, etc, we haven't come to that conclusion, he said. E20 fuel improves acceleration, ride quality; usage does not affect validity of insurance: Centre On the criticism about the use of E20, he said people write about interviewing somebody who is an automobile engineer whose 2021 or 2022 purchased car was doing very well until E20 came. But the important point is to find which car was being used by the automobile engineer and where he lives. If he lives in Gurugram or in Delhi and goes to Gurugram everyday, I can give you 21 reasons why the efficiency of the car we talked about (will go down). For a country that is 88 per cent dependent on imports to meet its oil needs, biofuels and cleaner energy are imperative of the time, he said. Going by projections made by the International Energy Agency, the Indian demand for energy will rise three times the global demand for the next two decades. 25 per cent of the increase in demand (globally) will come from India. Puri said India had 700 GCCs in 2010 which have grown to 1800 now and will rise to 2200 by 2030. They employ 1.9 million professionals and generate USD 65 billion in annual revenue. By 2030, this will grow to 2.8 million jobs and over USD 100 billion in revenue. Responding to social media chatter about the impact of 20 per cent ethanol-blended petrol on vehicles, Puri's ministry had last month stated that concerns over a drastic drop in fuel efficiency are misplaced, adding that the fuel in fact offers improved acceleration. SC rejects PIL against nationwide rollout of 20% ethanol-blended petrol Doping petrol with 20 per cent ethanol extracted from sugarcane or maize is a national programme aimed at cutting emissions and raising income of farmers, which is being sought to be derailed by some by fomenting fear and confusion, it had said. On August 4, the ministry had in a post on X said: Ethanol, being lower in energy density than petrol, results in a marginal decrease in mileage, estimated at 1-2 per cent for four-wheelers designed for E10 and calibrated for E20, and around 3-6 per cent in others. Social media posts have pointed out that the calorific value of ethanol is 29.7 as compared to 46.4 of petrol and so the energy produced per litre is 65 per cent of petrol. E10 is petrol mixed with 10 per cent ethanol. Social media posts also cite June 2021 Niti Aayog report to state that E20/E27 in E10 cars degrades rubber/plastic, corrodes metal, harms fuel systems, cuts mileage and may lead to need for part upgrades. Blending ambition with friction: Is E20 revving up or breaking down?

National Karting C'ship: Rivaan Dev Preetham Dominates In Mini Max; Sets Track Lap Record

FMSCI National Karting Championship Rotax: Mumbais Krish Gupta led a double podium for Rayo Racing as he topped the Finals in the Senior category in the fourth round of the MECO-FMSCI National Karting Championship Rotax Max Classes with SIDVIN Energy Engineering as the Presenting Sponsor and MRF Tyres as the partner sponsor, which concluded at the Meco Kartopia circuit here on Sunday. One of the highlights of the weekend was the performance of Chennai schoolboy Rivaan Dev Preetham (MSPORT) who yet again wrote his own script while dominating the Mini Max category where he swept to P1 in all the sessions that included two Heats, the Pre-Final and the Finals to consolidate his top position on the leaderboard. He leads Faridabads Yatharth Gaur (Leapfrog Racing) by 32 points after four rounds. To top it all, Rivaan set a track lap record of 57.991 seconds around the 1.2 Kms circuit in the Pre-Finals session. Krish Gupta upstaged the Senior Max field that included favourite and championship leader Bengalurus Ishaan Madesh (Peregrine Racing) who finished fourth. Krish, who started the race from fifth on the grid, made places for a win and thus, picked up crucial points. In P2 was Arjun Vijay Chheda (Crest Motorsports) from Pune. Aahil Mecklai, also from Mumbai and Rayo Racing, completed the podium in a thrilling race. Until the Final, it was Ishaan Madesh who had dominated by topping both the Heats and the Pre-Finals, but the Bengalurean, having started the Finals from pole position, got involved in an incident that saw him lose track position and finish fourth. The result notwithstanding, Ishaan continues to head the points table, albeit only two points ahead of Arjun Vijay Chheda. Another Pune youngster, Arafath Sheikh (Crest Motorsports) won both the Finals and the Pre-Final to underline his supremacy in the Junior class as did Shiv Tummala (Peregrine Racing) from Bengaluru in the Micro Max category. The Round-4 performance helped Arafath to move within 30 points of leader Eshanth Vengatesan (MSPORT) from Chennai who finished fourth in Pre-Finals and fifth in the Finals.

Police, Commission question NARI-2025 report for ranking Dehradun as 'unsafe' city

DEHRADUN: A controversial report by Pvalue Analytics, which branded Dehradun an unsafe city for women in its National Annual Report and Index (NARI) 2025, has sparked outrage in Uttarakhand. The report has drawn sharp criticism and a full-scale challenge from the State Women's Commission and local police. The Uttarakhand State Women's Commission has vehemently objected to the report, casting serious doubt on its reliability. On Tuesday, the Commission issued a stern directive to Pvalue Analytics, demanding that all survey-related documents and minutes of meetings to be submitted within one week. On Monday, Mayank Dahiya, a representative from Pvalue Analytics, appeared before the Commission. He described the NARI 2025 as an academic report and expressed regret over the controversy, but failed to provide satisfactory answers to the Commission's pointed questions regarding the methodology and data. Due to a lack of crucial information, the Commission reprimanded Mr. Dahiya and has now ordered the company's Managing Director and the entire research team to appear at the next hearing, a Commission official stated. Commission Chairperson, Kusum Kandwal did not mince words, telling TNIE , Several serious flaws have been found in the report. It is entirely unclear which women were included in the survey, what specific questions were asked, and what the actual research criteria were. She warned, If a satisfactory explanation is not provided by the company at the next hearing on September 15, the Commission will not hesitate to take necessary action. In a separate development, sources close to TNIE revealed that Pvalue Analytics representatives appeared before Senior Superintendent of Police Ajay Singh, where they struggled to provide convincing answers to police queries. The police probe was launched following widespread objections from trader organisations, hotel associations, and educational institutions, all of whom demanded action against the report for categorising Dehradun among the 10 most unsafe cities for women in the country. SSP Singh had earlier assigned the investigation to SP Rishikesh, who had issued a notice to the company. On Monday, Dahiya also met with SSP Singh, claiming the survey was conducted for a university academic research curriculum, with two distinct teams handling data collection and analysis. However, he reportedly failed to provide satisfactory explanations for fundamental questions about the survey's basis. SSP Ajay Singh has now directed the company's Managing Director, along with members of the data collection and analysis teams, and all documents related to the research/survey, to be presented within a week. If satisfactory answers are not provided within the stipulated time, or if the facts presented are found to be baseless, strict legal action will be taken against the company, the SSP Singh clarified, underscoring the seriousness of the allegations. Pvalue Analytics, the firm behind the controversial report, also has a prominent project team. The project's Principal Investigator is Prof. (Dr.) Manjula Batra, a Senior Professor at The NorthCap University, Gurugram, and former Dean and Head of the Faculty of Law at Jamia Millia Islamia University, New Delhi. Karan Kataria, a Rajya Sabha Research Fellow and Lecturer at Jindal Global Law School, O.P. Jindal Global University, Sonipat, serves as Co-Principal Investigator. Sumit Arora, a Partner at Pvalue Analytics, is the Project Director, with Dr. Seema Tiwari of Pvalue Analytics serving as the Project Manager.

NACEJ writes to Bhupender Yadav, Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini to scrap proposed Aravalli Zoo safari project

CHANDIGARH: The Union Minister of Environment, Forests and Climate Change, Bhupender Yadav and Haryana Chief Minister, Nayab Singh Saini, have been given a memorandum by the National Alliance for Climate and Ecological Justice (NACEJ) to scrap the proposed 10,000-acre Aravalli Zoo safari project. NACEJ is a pan Indian forum of the National Alliance of Peoples Movements (NAPM) comprising grassroots movement activists, ecologists, climate scientists, environmental researchers and lawyers. The 10,000-acre Aravalli Zoo safari project is the 'Worlds Largest Curated Safari Park' in Gurugram and Nuh districts of Haryana. A few months ago, a group of 37 retired Indian Forest Service officers from across the country had written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, opposing this project. NACEJ today sent a memorandum to the Union Minister of Environment, Forests and Climate Change Bhupender Yadav and Haryana CM Saini calling for immediate abandonment of the proposed Aravalli Zoo Safari Park. The memorandum critiques the proposed project and suggests alternatives, while also stressing the need for effective conservation of the fragile Aravalli ecosystem, upholding of community rights and the Forest Rights Act. The land identified for the project is ecologically significant. It comprises areas notified under the Punjab Land Preservation Act (PLPA), 1900, and land afforested under the Aravalli Plantation Project. Notably, a significant portion of the funding for the Aravalli Zoo Safari Park project will reportedly be sourced from compensatory payments for forest loss due to the disastrous megaproject planned in the Great Nicobar Island. The Haryana Zoo Safari project is fundamentally a commercial tourism venture with severe and irreversible negative consequences for the region's ecology, wildlife, and local communities, it reads. The memorandum stated that the project threatens the livelihoods and rights of local communities who depend on the Aravalli forests for fodder, fuelwood, and other resources. Following the declaration of 24,353 hectares as Protected Forest for compensatory afforestation, the Haryana Government suspended all community and individual rights over the land for 30 years. Furthermore, the project risks the displacement of approximately 100 economically vulnerable families who live in the area but lack formal land titles. Environmental Researcher and Lawyer Meenakshi Kapoor said, This action is in contravention of the Indian Forest Act, 1927, and directly violates the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 (FRA), which mandates the recording and recognition of people's rights. She further added that the plan to introduce exotic, charismatic species like tigers, lions, and cheetahs into fenced enclosures is a major point of contention. Conservation experts argue that fencing a contiguous 10,000-acre patch of forest will be devastating. It will fragment a critical and last-remaining functional wildlife corridor in Haryana, which connects to Mangar Bani and Asola sanctuaries and is used by native species like leopards, striped hyenas, sambar deer, and honey badgers. This fragmentation will obstruct the free movement of native wildlife, disrupt natural food chains, and likely increase human-wildlife conflict. Malaika Mathew Chawla, Ecologist, says, He focuses on a few exotic species for tourism, also risks the neglect of the several endangered and threatened native species that the Aravallis currently support. The Safari enclosures and the fencing will obstruct the free movement of existing wildlife in the Aravallis and cause fragmentation of the area and thus negatively impact their survival and well-being, The Aravalli range is a critical ecological feature, serving as a natural barrier against desertification and acting as a vital groundwater recharge zone for the water-deficient National Capital Region. Neelam Ahluwalia, Founder of People for Aravallis, a civil society group advocating for conservation of the Aravalli range, said, The extensive construction planned in the zoo safari in 10,000 acres of the Haryana Aravallis including hotels, clubs, roads, entertainment parks, landscaped gardens, etc. will involve clearing vegetation, destroying micro-habitats, and disrupting the region's aquifers. This will put immense pressure on an already severely depleted groundwater table in both Gurugram and Nuh districts. The influx of tourists will also lead to increased waste generation, pollution, and noise, further disturbing the fragile ecosystem. This is particularly alarming in a region already struggling with illegal construction, rampant illegal mining and mixed waste dumping and burning. As an alternative to the Aravalli Zoo Safari Park, NACEJ suggested developing a genuine and just ecotourism model centred on the regions native wildlife and local culture. Such an initiative would augment local livelihoods and generate tourism revenue without jeopardising the ecological integrity of the Aravallis.

Gurugram doctors remove two parasitic twins from infants abdomen in rare surgery

NEW DELHI: Doctors at a private hospital in Gurugram successfully removed two parasitic twins from the abdomen of a one-month-old baby girl diagnosed with a rare congenital anomaly known as fetus in fetu. The surgery was carried out at the Fortis Memorial Research Institute in Gurugram, with doctors confirming that the condition is estimated to occur in only around one in five lakh live births worldwide, making it a medical rarity. Most reported cases are detected in infancy or early childhood, though some have been also seen in adults. Globally, fewer than 300 cases of fetus in fetu -- single fetus developing within another newborn have been recorded to date, while instances involving multiple parasitic foetuses are even rarer, with only around 35 cases documented worldwide. The case came to light when the one-month-old baby girl was brought to the hospital with complaints of a swollen abdomen, excessive irritability and feeding difficulties, the hospital said in a statement. Initial examinations revealed abnormal growth inside her abdominal cavity, it said, adding that further imaging confirmed that the child was carrying two malformed babies within her abdominal cavity. This rare condition happens early in pregnancy, when one baby surrounds and traps another inside its body. The trapped baby cannot grow or survive. In this baby's case, both malformed babies were enclosed within a single sac, making it an exceptional medical rarity, the statement added. The pediatric surgical team at Fortis Gurugram planned the surgery after stabilising the infant. A specialised pediatric anesthetist was involved in the surgery and post the procedure, the baby responded well and continued to show steady signs of recovery under close monitoring. Talking about the challenges involved in handling the case, Dr Anand Sinha, Director, Pediatric Surgery at Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram said, The biggest challenge was operating on such a young newborn, with absolute precision. Post-operative intensive care also needs to be very thorough to avoid any mishaps. Pain relief in small newborns is also challenging. Sinha, however said, it is important to understand is that this condition, while rare, is not cancerous. Once removed, the chances of recurrence are extremely low. These are not tumorous growths but malformed fetal structures that do not divide uncontrollably. The child's recovery so far has been very encouraging, he said.

Heavy rains cripple Delhi- NCR: City choked by traffic jams, Yamuna nears danger mark

Torrential rains on Monday brought Delhi and surrounding NCR regions, including Gurugram, to a grinding halt, triggering massive traffic snarls, waterlogging, and disruptions in road, rail, and air travel. Major arterial roads across the national capital witnessed bumper-to-bumper traffic, particularly in South Delhi and along key Ring Road stretches. Flooded streets in areas like Mahatma Gandhi Road, NH-48, Captain Gaur Marg, and parts of Pitampura and Vasant Vihar caused severe congestion, leaving commuters stranded for hours. Metro operations were also hit, with technical glitches on the Blue and Yellow lines causing overcrowding at major stations including Rajiv Chowk. This marks the third technical snag reported on the Delhi Metro network in just a week. #WATCH | Traffic congestion and slow vehicular movement witnessed at Delhi-Gurugram border following heavy rain in Delhi NCR. pic.twitter.com/vVBxbVdoIX ANI (@ANI) September 1, 2025 A technical advisory issued by the India Meteorological Department (IMD) placed most of Delhi under an 'orange alert' for heavy to very heavy rainfall through Monday night. A yellow alert was also in effect earlier in the day. A flood warning was issued in Delhi on Monday by the Irrigation and Flood Control (I&FC) Department after discharge from Haryanas Hathnikund barrage rose to over 3.22 lakh cusecs, the highest this season. Officials warned that water levels in the Yamuna could cross the danger mark of 205.33 m at the Old Railway Bridge (ORB), which serves as a key observation point for tracking the rivers flow , by September 2 evening, reaching around 206 m due to heavy rainfall in the upper Yamuna catchment. The warning issued by the Central Flood Control Room in-charge said the discharge had exceeded 3 lakh cusecs. As the water level of ORB may cross the danger level and is likely to exceed 206.50 m all sector officers are hereby advised to keep a strict vigil in their respective areas and to take necessary action at vulnerable points. People residing within the river embankments shall be warned and shifted to safer places, the warning read. Air travel was equally chaotic, with over 95 incoming flights and more than 350 departures delayed at Indira Gandhi International Airport. Airlines including IndiGo, Air India, Akasa, and SpiceJet issued advisories urging passengers to check flight status before heading to the airport. In Gurugram, where over 100 mm of rainfall was recorded between 3 pm and 7 pm, authorities issued a work-from-home advisory for all private offices and directed schools to shift to online classes for Tuesday, September 2, in anticipation of continued heavy downpours.
