Nitin Gadkari Advocates 100% Ethanol Flex-Fuel Vehicles to Cut Pollution, Boost Farm Income, and End Fossil Fuel Imports

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari was recently seen riding a flex-fuel Toyota vehicle running entirely on 100 percent ethanol, stressing that the greater adoption of ethanol-fueled vehicles will significantly reduce pollution, enhance farmers’ earnings (as it is produced from agricultural byproducts like stubble, corn, and broken rice), and contribute to the gradual elimination of India’s reliance on imported fossil fuels like petrol.
