India should aim for 100% ethanol blending: Nitin Gadkari

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has said India should aspire to achieve 100% ethanol blending in the near future. "Today, we're facing an energy crisis due to the war in West Asia, so it's necessary for us to become self-reliant in the energy sector," he added. Notably, the Centre is reportedly considering draft rules for E85 fuel (85% ethanol, 15% petrol).
