Since the rollout of E20 petrol in 2023, it said there have been no widespread reports of engine failures or vehicle breakdowns attributable to ethanol blending.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>The ministry added that ethanol used for fuel blending is manufactured through established industrial processes and meets stringent quality specifications before being blended with petrol.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/business\/india-business\/can-using-e20-petrol-lead-to-insurance-claim-rejection-what-the-government-said\/articleshow\/132678098.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Govt said insurance claims cannot be rejected solely for E20 usage NEW DELHI: Using E20 (20% ethanol-blended) petrol cannot be a reason for an insurance claim to be rejected, according to the ministry of petroleum and natural gas.The clarification comes with BJP recently sharing a post on X urging consumers to &#8220;use E20 without any [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":41610,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-41609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 4.9.10 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Govt said insurance claims cannot be rejected solely for E20 usage NEW DELHI: Using E20 (20% ethanol-blended) petrol cannot be a reason for an insurance claim to be rejected, according to the ministry of petroleum and natural gas.The clarification comes with BJP recently sharing a post on X urging consumers to &quot;use E20 without any\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"max-image-preview:large\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"author\" content=\"kmrchand9\"\/>\n\t<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/banitoday.com\/hi\/can-using-e20-petrol-lead-to-insurance-claim-rejection-what-the-government-said\/\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"generator\" content=\"All in One SEO (AIOSEO) 4.9.10\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"hi_IN\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Bani Today - Breaking News\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n\t\t<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Can using E20 petrol lead to insurance claim rejection?
