K’taka govt claims E31 instead of E20 petrol, Centre denies| What’s the truth? | AI with Sanket

On AI with Sanket, political analyst Tehseen Poonawalla, BJP member and political analyst Alok Vats, and auto expert Ratan Dhillon debate whether this is genuine adulteration, a political attack, or a transparency failure, and what it would take to actually prove what’s really coming out of the pump. 00:00 – Opening context 02:21 – Ethanol blend claims 05:28 – Petrol pump testing 08:57 – Transparency in testing 15:27 – Consumer testing kits #AIWithSanket #Ethanol #E20Petrol #EthanolBlending #PetrolAdulteration #KarnatakaGovernment #IndianOil #FuelQuality #PetrolControversy #BJP #IndianPolitics #FuelStandards #EnergyPolicy #AutomobileIndustry #TheFederal --- ▶For the latest news and analysis - https://thefederal.com/  ▶RSS Feed - https://thefederal.com/google_feeds.xml ▶For more explainers, and interesting videos - https://thefederal.com/category/videos ▶To watch The Federal's shows listed together for your easy access, click here:    • The Federal Programmes   Follow The Federal News here - ▶Website: https://thefederal.com/ ▶Facebook:   / thefederal.india   ▶X: https://x.com/TheFederal_News ▶Instagram:   / thefederal_india   ▶LinkedIn:   / thefederal   ▶Whatsapp channel: https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029... ▶Threads: TheFederal India (@thefederal_india) ▶Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3fy3utP... #TheFederal #India #BreakingNews #LatestNews #News #Delhi #Mumbai #Parliament #NarendraModi #RahulGandhi #Politics #Business #Economy Download The Federal App here - ▶Android - http://bit.ly/3DJSkiu ▶iPhone - http://bit.ly/TheFederalios
