			<title>The Bintang Republik Indonesia Adipurna, commonly referred to as the Bintang Adipurna, is Indonesia&#8217;s highest state honour. NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday was conferred with Indonesia&#8217;s highest honour during his two-day visit to the archipelago nation.Indonesian president Prabowo Subianto conferred the nation&#8217;s highest honour &#8216;Bintang Adipurna of the Republic of Indonesia’ medal of honour upon PM Modi.The Bintang Republik Indonesia Adipurna, commonly referred to as the Bintang Adipurna, is Indonesia&#8217;s highest state honour. It is the highest class of the Star of the Republic of Indonesia (Bintang Republik Indonesia), the country&#8217;s premier order of merit, and is conferred by the President of Indonesia on individuals who have rendered extraordinary service to the nation. Established in 1959, the honour may be awarded to both Indonesian citizens and foreign dignitaries for exceptional contributions.For foreign heads of state and government, the Bintang Republik Indonesia Adipurna is awarded in recognition of their outstanding role in strengthening Indonesia&#8217;s friendship, strategic cooperation and bilateral relations with other countries. The order comprises five classes, with Adipurna being the highest, underscoring its status as Indonesia&#8217;s most prestigious state decoration.Earlier, PM was accorded a grand ceremonial welcome in Jakarta on Tuesday, where horse-mounted guards, a ceremonial Guard of Honour, and enthusiastic crowds marked the commencement of his official visit to Indonesia.Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto personally received the Prime Minister, with the two leaders sharing a warm hug before embarking on their high-level bilateral talks scheduled for later in the day.Deploying everything from horse-mounted guards to vibrant traditional cultural performances, Indonesia rolled out a spectacular reception for PM Modi, who is currently on the initial leg of his three-nation diplomatic visit.The Prime Minister landed in Indonesia on Monday, where his aircraft was escorted by Indonesian military fighter jets upon entering the country&#8217;s airspace. He was formally received on the tarmac by President Prabowo and greeted with a traditional cultural dance performance.This July 6-8 visit, undertaken at the personal invitation of President Prabowo, marks PM Modi&#8217;s fourth visit to the Southeast Asian archipelago. Crucially, this is the first bilateral visit between the two nations since they formally elevated their relationship to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2018.The two leaders are slated to hold comprehensive bilateral talks to review the full spectrum of India-Indonesia ties and explore avenues to deepen cooperation across defence, trade, maritime security, critical minerals, healthcare, and emerging technologies.Get the latest India news and live updates.

			<title>Photo credit: AP India has completed its nationwide shift to E20 petrol, which means the regular petrol sold at pumps now contains 20% ethanol. The transition was achieved in April 2025, much ahead of the earlier 2030 target.Govt is now preparing for the next phase of ethanol blending. It has exempted petrol containing 22-30% ethanol from central excise duty, placing it on a similar tax footing as E20. Separately, it has proposed changes to the Central Motor Vehicles Rules to formally recognise E85 and E100 fuels.For consumers, the key question is how E20 affects the engine life and mileage of their vehicles and whether ethanol blending will eventually go beyond 20%.The debate: What comes next?The immediate controversy is around E20, but the larger concern is about where India’s ethanol programme goes from here. The Bureau of Indian Standards has already notified fuel standards for E22, E25, E27 and E30. That has led to speculation that the govt may eventually raise the mandatory ethanol content in regular petrol beyond E20.Officials maintain that any move to a higher blend will happen only after research, testing and consultation with stakeholders. Petroleum ministry has also said that fears around ethanol blending are not backed by scientific evidence. Automakers, however, are more cautious about blends beyond E20.They say any move to E25 or higher would require fresh validation of engines, fuel systems, materials, emissions and durability.Why motorists are uneasyMany vehicle owners are still adjusting to the shift from E10 to E20. The rollout happened quickly, and consumers now have no option at regular pumps to buy petrol without 20% ethanol.Some owners have reported lower mileage. Others have raised concerns about long-term reliability, especially those manufactured before 2012. Vehicles made before April 2023 are also at the centre of the current debate because they were not all originally certified for E20 use.Mileage is the first pain pointFor most vehicle owners, mileage remains one of the most important factors. That is why the fuel-efficiency impact of E20 has become the most visible part of the controversy.The govt and automobile companies accept that E20 can reduce mileage. They generally put the reduction at around 3-4%, compared with E10.A 2021 study by Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI), Indian Oil Corporation and Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) found that fuel consumption with E20 can increase by 2-6% compared with E10, depending on the vehicle.Maruti Suzuki has said E20’s lower calorific value results in a mileage drop of around 3-3.5%. For a car delivering 20kmpl, that would translate to a reduction of roughly 0.6 kmpl.Consumers, however, argue that the real-world loss often feels higher. They also point out that they are buying more fuel without any price reduction to compensate for the lower energy content of ethanol-blended petrol.Automakers say mileage is influenced by many other factors as well, including tyre pressure, driving style, gear selection, traffic, road conditions and vehicle maintenance.What it can mean for older vehiclesThe biggest worry is not just mileage, but long-term vehicle health.Ethanol contains oxygen and absorbs moisture more easily than petrol. Over time, this can increase the risk of corrosion or deterioration in some materials if the vehicle was not designed with ethanol compatibility in mind.Engineers have warned that higher ethanol blends can affect rubber and plastic parts in the fuel system. Components such as hoses, gaskets, seals and O-rings may be more vulnerable than metallic parts. Concerns have also been raised about possible effects on valves, piston heads and fuel-system durability in older vehicles.Some have raised the issue of cold starts being more difficult with E20 fuel in winter, but automakers said there should not be any such problem.The risk is not the same for all vehicles. Newer ones are more likely to have ethanol-compatible materials and calibration. Older vehicles, especially those originally designed for E0 or E10 fuel, are more likely to face long-term compatibility issues.What 2021 study foundThe 2021 ARAI-linked assessment is central to the govt’s and industry’s defence of E20. The study did not find significant corrosion, pitting or discolouration in the metallic components tested. This has been used to argue that E20 does not cause widespread damage to vehicles.How blending works outHowever, the same report also noted that certain rubber materials, including NBR-PVC blend elastomers, fared worse with E20 than E10. It recorded SIAM’s view that rubber parts used in fuel-system components, such as hoses, gaskets, seals and O-rings, may show deterioration and may need replacement for E20 use.Why automakers say E20 is safeMajor automobile manufacturers have publicly backed the use of E20 in existing petrol vehicles.At a recent govt press conference, representatives from Maruti Suzuki, Toyota Kirloskar Motor, Hyundai Motor India, Hero MotoCorp, TVS Motor Company and Bajaj Auto said years of testing and real-world experience show E20 is safe for vehicles already on the road.Toyota Kirloskar Motor’s Vikram Gulati said E20 was introduced only after rigorous testing, including on older vehicles, and that India’s certification process follows internationally accepted UNECE standards. Maruti Suzuki cited service-network data to support its position. The company said it serviced 2.84 crore vehicles in FY26, including more than 1.5 crore vehicles older than three years and, therefore, not originally certified for E20. According to the company, it found no evidence of E20-related corrosion, abnormal wear or reduced component life.Maruti also said existing petrol vehicles do not require retrofitting to use E20, arguing that modern vehicles are engineered with safety margins beyond basic E20 compatibility.Hero MotoCorp made a similar claim for two-wheelers, saying its service data did not show a higher incidence of damage in vehicles using E20, compared with earlier petrol blends.What’s fuelling the controversy?Although E20 was introduced earlier, nationwide availability was achieved only in April 2025. That is why complaints about mileage loss and possible vehicle impact have become more visible now.The accelerated rollout is also important. If the original 2030 target had remained, many older E0 vehicles manufactured before 2012, and a large share of E10-compliant vehicles manufactured from 2013 onward, would have completed much of their usable life before E20 became the national standard. The notification of standards for E22, E25, E27 and E30 has added to the anxiety. Many motorists now worry that E20 may only be an intermediate step and that higher ethanol blends could become mandatory in the future.E25 is a bigger leap than E20Automakers have endorsed E20, but they are more guarded about E25 and higher blends. “Raising ethanol content would require them to validate engine calibration, fuel-system durability, corrosion resistance, material compatibility and emissions performance all over again,” an automotive engineer said.Vehicles currently certified for E20 may require new homologation and regulatory approvals for E25 or higher blends. That would involve compliance costs, which could eventually be reflected in vehicle prices. Higher ethanol content could also make mileage loss more noticeable because ethanol contains less energy than petrol. That is why any move beyond E20 is likely to face closer scrutiny from both automakers and consumers.E85 is not for regular carsE85 should not be confused with E20 or E25. It is a high-ethanol fuel meant only for flex-fuel vehicles.Flex-fuel vehicles are specially engineered to run on a wide range of ethanol-petrol blends, from E20 up to E85 or even pure ethanol in some cases. They require compatible fuel systems, engine calibration and materials that can withstand higher ethanol content.Petroleum minister Hardeep Singh Puri inaugurating an E85 pump in DelhiMaruti Suzuki has showcased an E85compatible flex-fuel WagonR. Hero MotoCorp has unveiled flex-fuel versions of Splendor Plus and HF Deluxe that can run on blends up to E85. Suzuki Motorcycle India also offers a flex-fuel motorcycle.Using E85 in a conventional petrol vehicle could damage components, reduce performance and affect reliability. Toyota has also stressed that E85 is meant for flexfuel vehicles and should not be seen as a replacement for E20 in ordinary petrol cars.Can motorists choose fuel?At present, consumers do not have a choice between regular petrol and E20. E20 is now the standard petrol sold across the country. That is different from Brazil, where motorists can choose between different ethanol-petrol blends depending on vehicle compatibility, price and availability. Brazil’s flex-fuel ecosystem evolved over several decades and gave consumers multiple options at the pump.In India, experts say the govt should consider making higher ethanol blends optional rather than mandatory, at least initially. That would allow compatible vehicles to use them while protecting owners of older or non-compatible vehicles.Going forward, India may develop two parallel fuel ecosystems. Regular petrol could gradually move from E20 to higher blends such as E25. Separately, E85 and E100 pumps would serve flex-fuel vehicles.The rollout of E85 has already begun, with India’s first E85 retail outlet opened in New Delhi. The next phase is expected to focus on Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Pune and Ahmedabad, followed by a wider expansion of E85 dispensing stations.Why the government is Pushing EthanolIndia is a major importer of crude oil, making it vulnerable to global price shocks and supply disruptions. Ethanol blending is intended to reduce oil imports, save foreign exchange, improve energy security and create a larger market for domestically produced ethanol.Govt also argues that ethanol blending can help reduce emissions and support farmers by creating demand for ethanol feedstock. The benefits of blending gained renewed attention after geopolitical tensions affected global fuel supply and crude prices. The long-term vision appears similar to Brazil’s flex-fuel model. The difference is that Brazil built its system gradually and allowed consumer choice. India’s shift has been faster and, so far, motorists have not had the option of buying 100% petrol instead of E20.Testing, trust, confidenceGovt and automakers say E20 is safe, tested and necessary for India’s energy security. Many consumers, however, remain worried about mileage, maintenance and the impact on older vehicles.The next phase will be more sensitive. Moving from E20 to higher blends would require stronger evidence, transparent testing and clearer communication. Consumers will also want answers on whether older vehicles need component replacements, whether fuel prices will reflect lower mileage, and whether they will get a choice at the pump.Get the latest India news and live updates.

			<title>Mahant Dinendra Das said the Trust had found no wrongdoing of Champat Rai NEW DELHI: The Ram Mandir donation row took a fresh turn on Tuesday after Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra trustee Mahant Dinendra Das defended former general secretary Champat Rai, saying the Trust had found no wrongdoing on his part and that all gold and silver donations made to the temple remained safe and fully accounted for.His remarks came a day after the Trust accepted the resignations of Champat Rai and trustee Anil Mishra following a meeting convened in the backdrop of the ongoing SIT probe into the alleged embezzlement of Ram Mandir donations.Mahant Dinendra Das said the trustees had initially wanted Champat Rai to continue as no evidence of wrongdoing had been found against him. However, they eventually accepted his resignation after receiving legal advice.&#8221;All the key figures associated with Ram Lalla had arrived. The proposal was accepted. No wrongdoing was found on the part of Champat Rai by the trust. However, because of his resignation, everyone was ready to accept it. We said that since no fault was found in Champat Rai, he should be retained. But the lawyer handling the Janmabhoomi case received a call stating that since he has given a written resignation, it should be accepted. The trustees agreed that if the authorities or court held that a written resignation must be accepted, then everyone had to agree,&#8221; he told news agency ANI.Responding to allegations that precious offerings had gone missing, the trustee categorically rejected the claims and said every gold and silver donation remained secure.&#8221;Regarding the serious allegations that saddened many&#8211;specifically about the gold and silver donations&#8211;all the gold and silver is there, safely stored and accounted for. A full report of it has been provided. Ram Lalla has ensured all work is completed. The mistakes being shown were mostly narratives from the media. Ultimately, the media&#8217;s own errors were revealed,&#8221; he said.Mahant Dinendra Das also announced that Keshav Mohan had taken over the responsibilities previously handled by Champat Rai and would supervise the Trust&#8217;s administration and accounts.&#8221;In place of Champat Rai, Keshav Mohan has been appointed. He is looking after everything safely and overseeing all the accounts. The newly appointed member will handle the proceedings and continue providing full accounts,&#8221; he said.The developments come as the Trust seeks to address growing scrutiny following the Special Investigation Team&#8217;s probe into the alleged theft of donations collected at the Ram Mandir.On Monday, Trust treasurer Swami Govind Dev Giri Ji Maharaj confirmed that the resignations of Champat Rai and trustee Anil Mishra had been accepted. He said negligence by the two office-bearers over an extended period was a serious issue and maintained that those found responsible for the alleged embezzlement should face investigation and appropriate punishment. He also dismissed allegations that valuable offerings had disappeared, saying all donated items had been properly documented and remained safe.The Trust meeting followed the submission of a preliminary SIT report, which flagged serious security lapses inside the donation counting room and alleged that some counting staff had systematically stolen cash. The SIT has described its findings as preliminary and said further investigation and legal proceedings are continuing. Get the latest India news and live updates.
