PETROL MAFIA

I AM VERY CERTAIN that this RSS-BJP scoundrels will continue with the EP-20 petrol with ethanol adulteration knowing very well that it is inferior in every way and damages all vehicles besides lowering mileage. In the meantime, multiple truckloads of crores of money will be made on a national scale. No transparency, responsibility, accountability or payment of damages will ever happen. The courts of law will protect these crooked rascals with the quid pro quo arrangements as is evident since a decade.

After a year, in October or December, this grandiose experiment will stop, mainly due to public agitation and widespread outrage.

Thereafter, normal petrol will again be introduced but at around ₹200 per litre. It will become the new norm of loot 💰 As of now unadulterated 100-Octane petrol is available at select petrol pumps of HPCL, BPCL and Indian Oil as Power-100, Speed-100 and XP-100 respectively. The price today in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region is around ₹167 per litre.

Meanwhile, global crude oil prices may touch down to $20 a barrel❗️

Financial crises putting my mtech career and life at risk.

My name is Sachin Kumar, and I am pursuing M.Tech in Electrical Engineering at NIT Patna.

Writing this is one of the hardest things I have ever done. I never imagined I would have to ask strangers for help, but today I have reached a point where I have no other option.

My family is going through severe financial hardship. My parents are currently unemployed and are unable to support my education. Over the past months, I made serious financial mistakes while trying to cope with mounting financial pressure. Instead of solving my problems, those decisions made my situation much worse.

I take full responsibility for my mistakes and deeply regret them.

Today, I need ₹42,000 to pay my second-year M.Tech admission fee. Without this payment, I may not be able to continue my education. I also have outstanding debts that I am committed to repaying honestly over time.

Despite everything that has happened, I have not given up on my dream of completing my M.Tech, building a stable career, and supporting my family. Education is my best opportunity to rebuild my life and become financially independent.

I am not asking anyone to solve all my problems. I am only asking for a chance to continue my education. Every contribution, no matter how small, and every share of this appeal brings me one step closer to staying in college and rebuilding my future.

If you are unable to contribute financially, I would be deeply grateful if you could simply share this post so it reaches someone who may be able to help.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for any kindness you can offer.

The great experiments by the government

THE BJP GOVERNMENT IS experimenting with the lives of its citizens and with the vehicles of citizens.

Here is the break-up:

COVID VACCINE ILL EFFECTS:

  1. Rare, Serious Adverse Events:

Rigorous global surveillance has identified a few very rare but serious complications associated with specific types of COVID-19 vaccines.

Heart Inflammation (Myocarditis and Pericarditis):

What it is: Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle; pericarditis is inflammation of the outer lining of the heart.

Associated Vaccines: Mainly mRNA vaccines (Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna) and, to a lesser extent, protein subunit vaccines (Novavax).

Risk Profile: It is extremely rare, occurring at a rate of roughly 12 to 36 cases per million second doses. The risk is highest in adolescent and young adult males (ages 12–39) within the first week after the second dose.

Outcomes: The vast majority of these cases are mild, respond well to standard medical treatment or rest, and resolve quickly.

  1. Blood Clotting Issues (TTS):

What it is: Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS) involves serious and rare blood clots combined with low blood platelet counts.

Associated Vaccines: Viral vector vaccines (such as the AstraZeneca/Covishield and Johnson & Johnson vaccines).

Status: Due to this rare risk, medical regulatory bodies worldwide shifted their preferences toward updated mRNA or protein subunit vaccines.

  1. Neurological & Immune Conditions:

Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS): A rare neurological disorder where the body's immune system damages nerve cells. It was observed as a rare event primarily linked to viral vector vaccines (roughly 38 cases per million doses).

Anaphylaxis: Severe, immediate allergic reactions can happen with any vaccine or medication. It occurs in about 4.7 cases per million doses of mRNA vaccines and is treated immediately on-site with epinephrine.

PETROL-ETHANOL ADULTERATION ILL EFFECTS:

  1. Mechanical and Engine ill Effects:

Corrosion of Metal Components: Ethanol is highly corrosive to certain metals. In an incompatible fuel system, it attacks and oxidizes aluminum, brass, copper, and steel parts. This leads to internal rusting and pitting in the fuel tank, fuel lines, injectors, and carburetors.

Degradation of Rubber and Plastics: Unlike petroleum, alcohol acts as a solvent that degrades, swells, and cracks older formulations of rubber hoses, gaskets, and plastic fuel components. This can lead to critical fuel leaks and dangerous fire hazards.

Phase Separation (The Water Trap): Ethanol is hygroscopic, meaning it actively draws moisture out of the surrounding air. When the water content in the fuel tank reaches a certain threshold (usually less than 1%), the ethanol and water bond together and separate from the petrol, sinking to the bottom of the tank. If the fuel pump draws from this bottom layer, it pumps an abrasive water-alcohol mix into the engine, causing immediate stalling or severe misfires.

Clogging from Debris: As ethanol scours the inside of old fuel tanks, it dissolves varnish deposits built up over years of petrol use. This loosened debris travels down the system, quickly clogging fuel filters and fuel injectors.

  1. Vehicle Performance Impacts:

Noticeable Drop in Mileage: Ethanol contains roughly 30% to 35% less energy by volume than pure gasoline. For an un-calibrated engine, running on accidental or high-adulteration ethanol levels typically leads to a 5% to 8% drop in fuel economy, meaning you pay the same price at the pump but get fewer miles per litre.

Rough Idling and Misfires: Because ethanol alters the air-fuel ratio (making the engine run "leaner" or with more oxygen than intended), older vehicles experience sluggish acceleration, rough idling, engine hesitation, and difficulty starting—especially during cold weather.

  1. Environmental & Consumer Complications:

Elevated Evaporative Emissions: While tailpipe carbon emissions generally drop with ethanol blends, low-to-mid level blends actually increase the Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) of the fuel. This means the fuel evaporates much faster from open-air tanks and vents, releasing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) like aldehydes into the atmosphere, which contribute to urban smog.

Financial and Insurance Risk: Because high-level ethanol blends behave aggressively toward older engine materials, major manufacturers and insurers frequently warn that engine damage caused by using a higher-than-recommended ethanol blend (like putting E20 in a non-compliant BS4 or early BS6 vehicle) can void warranties or lead to denied repair claims.

is cooking fish actually as simple as it is made to look?

whenever people talk about cooking fish, the conversation is usually around recipes and cooking time. but in my house… my mom spends way more time worrying about whether the fish is really fresh, cleaning it properly, removing all the unwanted bits and then dealing with cuts that are never properly done. sometimes even after all that effort, the taste turns out a little odd from what she expected because the fish wasn’t that fresh.
just wanna ask ppl who cook fish regularly at home… how much of the effort goes into cooking and how much goes into prepping?
