Arvind Kejriwal announces National Town Hall against E20 petrol in Delhi on August 1

AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Monday announced that the party will organise a ‘National Town Hall against E20′ in New Delhi on August 1 to discuss concerns surrounding ethanol-blended petrol and build public support for its campaign.

Addressing a press conference, Kejriwal said the event will be held at the Constitution Club of India and will bring together experts, vehicle owners and members of the public to deliberate on the impact of E20 fuel.

“We are inviting people to join in large numbers this platform where we will discuss how to create pressure on the central government to withdraw the E20 petrol. Experts and people who have faced problems with their vehicles, all are invited,” he said.

Kejriwal said the party’s campaign against E20 petrol has also received support online, adding that the AAP’s petition seeking to make E20 fuel optional has garnered more than two lakh signatures.

The proposed town hall is part of the party’s outreach on the issue, with AAP urging the Centre to reconsider the rollout of E20 petrol and allow consumers the option to choose whether to use the blended fuel.
