Bengaluru Metro: Good news for commuters, 4th Yellow Line train to start soon as...; check details inside
(File) Bengaluru Metro: In some great news for commuters on the Bengaluru Metro, aka the Namma Metro network, a fourth train will start operations soon 0n the Namma Metro Yellow Line, as the first of six coaches for the trainset has arrived in the Karnataka capital from Kolkata, while the remaining five coaches are expected to arrive in the next couple of days. When will Bengaluru Metro Yellow Line get its fourth train? According to B L Yashavanth Chavan, Chief Public Relations Officer, Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation Limited (BMRCL), after their arrival, all six coaches will be coupled to form a train at the Hebbagodi depot. After static testing, the train will ply on the Bengaluru Metro Yellow Line, he said. The fourth train will undergo at least two weeks of testing on the mainline at night before entering passenger service by early September, according to another senior official. Who built the trainsets? The coaches for the new Yellow Line train were manufactured by Titagarh Rail Systems Limited (TRSL), under a sub-contract with China's state-owned CRRC Nanjing Puzhen Co Ltd, officials said. The BMRCL awarded TRSL a Rs 1,578-crore contract in December 2019 to deliver 36 trainsets, 15 for the Yellow Line and 21 for the Purple and Green lines, within 173 weeks. But the order was delayed as CRCC could not find an Indian partner for a long time, and later faced visa troubles for bringing in its engineers from China. A prototype train for the Yellow Line was delivered by CRRC in February 2024, while TSRL delivered two more trainsets this year. All three trains are currently operation in the 19.15-km long Yellow Line, which opened on August 11 with a 25-minute frequency.

Ethanol-blended petrol E20: Counting gains
India's transition to E20, petrol blended with 20% ethanol, is aimed at cutting emissions, enhancing energy security, saving foreign exchange, and boosting farmer income, according to government assurances. These statements come in response to public concerns that E20 use reduces fuel efficiency, accelerates wear and tear, and could result in rejection of insurance claims for non-compliant vehicles. Independence Day 2025 Before Trump, British used tariffs to kill Indian textile Bank of Azad Hind: When Netaji gave India its own currency Swadeshi 2.0: India is no longer just a market, it's a maker Ethanol Blending Milestones (OMCs) 1.53% – 2014 10% – June 2022 12.06% – ESY* 2022–23 14.60% – ESY 2023–24 19.93% – ESY 2024–25^ 27% Ethanol Norms by Aug: Nitin Gadkari *ESY: 1 Nov–31 Oct | ^July 2025 Concerns Fears raised about drastic mileage reduction and faster wear of some rubber and gasket parts in older vehicles when using E20. Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MoPNG) admits a marginal decrease (1–2%) in mileage in E10 vehicles and those calibrated for E20, and 3–6% for others. However, MoPNG says this can be minimised through improved engine tuning and use of E20-compatible materials. Post-April 2023 vehicles are E20-compliant, MoPNG quotes SIAM. (Inexpensive) replacement of some rubber parts/gaskets advised in certain older vehicles after 20–30K km run, says ministry. Argument raised that ethanol-blended fuel should be sold cheaper because of its lower calorific value; however, MoPNG says current weighted average ethanol procurement price (Rs 71.32/L as of July) is now higher than petrol. Fears of insurance cover not valid, says ministry. Benefits From ESY 2014–15 to ESY 2024–25 (July): Crude oil substitution: 245 lakh metric tonnes Foreign exchange saved: Rs 1,44,087 crore CO2 emission reduction: 736 lakh metric tonnes (equivalent to planting 30 crore trees) GHG emissions: Sugarcane and maize-based ethanol emit up to 65% and 50% less GHG than petrol, respectively. Lower carbon emissions: ~30% vs E10 fuel. Farmer income: E20 programme expected to pay farmers Rs 40,000 crore in 2025 alone. Higher octane ethanol: E20's RON is 108.5 vs petrol's 84.4. Better Acceleration RON (Research Octane Number) 95 with blending of E20, resulting in better anti-knocking properties and performance. Economic impact: Large forex savings, rural income improvements, elimination of sugarcane arrears, support for maize cultivation. The Brazil Template Brazil has had E27 ethanol blend in place for years, with no significant issues reported. By 2011, 83.1% of new cars sold in Brazil used flex-fuel technology, enabling engines to run on any mix of ethanol or petrol. Toyota, Honda, and Hyundai produce vehicles designed for ethanol blends. Brazilian regulators recently approved an increase in ethanol and biodiesel blending into fossil fuels, effective 1 August. Brazil's CNPE (National Energy Policy Council) to increase ethanol–petrol blending rates to 30% (E30). Brazil is the largest producer and user of ethanol from sugarcane, and the biggest ethanol exporter in the world. However, Brazil's ethanol production programme Proálcool (launched in 1975 and ended in 1990) faced problems. Risks include: Cheaper oil prices Rise in ethanol procurement prices Diversion of sugarcane to making sugar for exports
