AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday led a protest march towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence in New Delhi against the Centre's rollout of E20 petrol. Carrying a petition signed by over 2.3 lakh people, the party alleged that mandatory use of E20 fuel has reduced mileage and damaged vehicles, particularly older models. Kejriwal also claimed the policy was introduced under pressure from the United States to facilitate ethanol imports, a charge the Centre has not substantiated. The protesters demanded that motorists be allowed to choose between regular petrol and E20 and sought a meeting with the Prime Minister over the issue. Thank you for watching our video!
