Gadkari also hit back at the campaign against the E20 fuel (20% ethanol blended petrol), saying the campaign was politically motivated against him
NEW DELHI: Union Minister Nitin Gadkari on Thursday urged the automobile industry to consider offering additional discounts to customers who submit a scrappage certificate while buying a new vehicle.
The Road Transport and Highway Minister also said that he has requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman to give GST relief to those buying a new vehicle after scrapping their old vehicle.
The minister also hit back at the campaign against the E20 fuel (20 per cent ethanol blended petrol), saying the campaign was politically motivated against him.
"This social media campaign was a paid campaign. It was against ethanol, and it was to target me politically," he said, speaking here at the annual convention of the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM).
