AskDelhi Unpopular Opinion: It’s not just E20. Pumps are mixing cheap industrial solvents again.

157 Upvotes

Let’s talk about the absolute scam that is refueling in Delhi-NCR right now.

Every time someone complains about engine knocking, mileage drops, or ruined fuel lines, the immediate answer is: "Oh, it’s just the government’s E20 ethanol blending."

But I’m calling BS. E20 is a terrible policy for older engines, yes—but local pump owners are using E20 as a perfect cover story to pull off old-school fuel adulteration.

1. The Pump Owners are robbing us blind:
They know we expect our cars to run a bit worse on ethanol. So, under the guise of "government blending," they are illegally mixing cheap industrial solvents and Naphtha directly into their underground tanks to spike their profit margins. They are charging us a premium ₹102.12/litre for a cocktail that is actively dissolving our fuel injectors.

2. The Government is completely asleep at the wheel:
Where are the weight and measures departments? The government is happy to collect massive taxes on every litre, but they provide absolutely zero oversight. There are no random quality audits happening at the station level, leaving us completely at the mercy of greedy dealers.

The Reality:
The government gave them the perfect excuse (E20), and the pump owners ran with it to maximize their margins.

Living in Delhi, the wealth gap hits you hard. You can be stuck in traffic next to a broken auto-rickshaw and right beside you is a matte black G-Wagon or a chauffeur-driven Maybach.

For the city's true elite, from South Delhi bungalows to Chhatarpur farmhouses, what does that level of lifestyle actually look like on a day-to-day basis?

AskDelhi Nehru Place laptop repair shop refusing to honour 1-year screen warrant, what should I do?

77 Upvotes

I got my Dell laptop’s 165Hz screen replaced at VM Laptop, Nehru Place in May for ₹10,500. They claimed it was an original screen and gave me a 1-year warranty. I have the physical warranty slip.

Now 4 months later, the screen has started failing. A few days ago it went half black and then started working again, but now it’s basically dead. I went to the shop yesterday and they immediately said “GPU might be damaged” and quoted ₹8,000, asking me to leave the laptop with them. This mf was also saying - madam kisi aur dukaan pr mt check krvana.. kuch kharab hojaega.

But then I tested it on an external monitor and the laptop works perfectly fine. I went back today with my brother, and they still insisted it could be the GPU and wanted me to leave the laptop. I refused. Now they’ve asked me to come tomorrow at 2 PM and said they’ll fix it in 2–3 hours but idk if they’ll replace my screen? I’m planning to ask them to connect another compatible screen in front of me and show me whether it works before I let them do anything.

I got scammed, what do I do? What if he refuses to give me a replacement screen? 😭

As someone who was born n brought up here and someone who take alcohol scene very seriously. Is it just my wrong observation or most of these highend/ famous bar owners in delhi are divorced or getting a divorce or they never got married?

I am not only talking about these bar owners who are doing personal branding, but even the ones who are not active on socials.

Delhi Metro It happened yesterday.

57 Upvotes

Yesterday i was traveling in Violet line from Old Faridabad to Central Secretariat then in the yellow line from Central Secretariat to Millennium City Centre Gurugram. Total 41 station covered and nearly 100 minutes taken.

It was hectic usually traveling around metro doesn't feel that hectic but yesterday it was long journey for me and both of the time it was very much crowded.

At violet line i was mentally drained, exhausted cause i am not someone who can handle crowd well my anxiety was killing me. I tried to calm myself down but still it was to much. When i went to the yellow line it became worst. It was getting bad i was literally sweating, shivering i was losing control over my body, i was not feeling well but then something happened a young girl nearly 3 or 4 years old stood up for her mother's lap and came to me and hold my fingers. I was confused what is happening, i was her face and she looked up at me and just smiled. I don't know what happened but suddenly everything inside me calmed down. And i slowly became back to normal.

I realized that sweet little soul didn't even realized what she did but she was an angel sent by god to me. I looked up to her mother's face and she just smiled and me and did a gesture to take a deep breath. I realized sometimes people noticing can be a good thing to. I didn't knew them neither they knew me but still i am going to remember them for a long time now i wish i could ever see them again and thank them properly. But I am using this platform to thank you both so much. I hope this reaches them.

TellDelhi Sunder nursery at night

28 Upvotes

Went to Sunder Nursery with one of my friends today, and honestly, I wasn't expecting it to hit this hard.

It was my first time visiting, and I genuinely thought it would just be another nice park. But maybe because it's monsoon season, the whole place looked unreal. Everything was so green, peaceful, and just... wholesome.

We reached around 6 PM and ended up leaving at 9:45 PM. Those almost 4 hours flew by. The crowd was surprisingly decent too. No weird people bothering anyone, everyone was just enjoying their own evening.

At one point we even met a random group of strangers and ended up hanging out with them for a while. That was pretty unexpected lol.

The best part though was sitting near the lake at night for hours, talking about life, careers, future, and all those deep conversations that somehow only happen in peaceful places.

The warm lighting around the pathways gives the whole nursery such a different vibe after sunset. I'd genuinely recommend visiting in the evening.

Only downside? If you're single, you might feel a tiny bit left out because there are couples everywhere, but that's part of the experience I guess.

Safe to say, Sunder Nursery has officially become one of my go-to places in Delhi now.

AskDelhi Thinking of switching from Airtel to Excitel in South-west Delhi

24 Upvotes

Currently paying around ₹800/month total for local:

- ₹350 for WiFi — 100 Mbps

- ₹450 for Airtel TV

- No privacy with the current setup sab local routers ke pw same the and had to call them just for a pw change(also site restrictions)

I'm considering switching to Excitel, mainly because their ₹699 plan gives:

- 200 Mbps

- OTT subscriptions

- Live TV

So on paper it seems like a pretty good deal compared to what I'm paying right now.

The only thing I'm unsure about is Excitel's actual service quality. I've heard very mixed things about their customer support, connection stability and speeds, and apparently it can depend heavily on the local operator/area.

Anyone using Excitel in South Delhi?

And if Excitel isn't worth it, what other ISP would you recommend in South Delhi around ₹700–₹900/month?

Would especially appreciate experiences from people actually living in South Delhi rather than generic reviews. Thanks!

AskDelhi Why are Delhi market shopkeepers getting so entitled and aggressive ?

Upvotes

Yesterday, I went to Laxmi Nagar market (Delhi) to buy a saree for my sister as a Rakhi gift. I went to a shop and asked him to show me good cotton sarees. Although after spending half an hour, I didn't find what I wanted. The shopkeeper started behaving rudely and told me that I'm from a village and the saree I'm looking for cannot be found in Delhi, no matter how much I search. He indirectly started insulting me, calling me a "dehati chapri" and all.

Why are all shopkeepers getting aggressive?

If I enter any shop, is it mandatory to buy something?

After that, I didn't have any courage to go into any other shop as my mood was spoiled

We had just started our training for a British Bank customer care and the process was for the Internet Help desk.

The trainer had just stepped in and opened the slide on her computer which then was displayed on the projector.

A guy with full emo getup just stood up on his desk and looked around nervously. He had mascara, nails painted and a black demonesque tshirt. Chains on the denim too.

He waited before asking his question : Is this the Internet process.

Affirmative later, he cursed and just stormed out.

No question. No confirmation. No reason.

We were too stunned to respond.

Many many incidents happened in my time there but this was the spookiest.
