Karnataka finds ethanol up to 31% in petrol samples

Karnataka's lab tests on 14 petrol samples from seven districts found ethanol content of 13.5% to 31.2%, with only two samples below 20%. Minister Rizwan Arshad flagged over-blending by oil marketing companies, citing risks to vehicles not built for higher blends. The state will submit findings to the Centre and seek compensation for consumers.
