Ramdas Athawale, in a light-hearted response, confirmed a news article about his decision to use the Mumbai Metro after Narendra Modi urged fuel conservation. Athawale, known for his unique style, presented his agreement in a rhyming verse, highlighting his commitment to public transport.

The report claimed Athawale chose the metro over a luxury car to encourage public transport and energy efficiency. Athawale supports Modi's recent appeal, linked to the West Asian crisis, for citizens to use fuel judiciously. However, he clarified he neither owns nor typically uses a luxury automobile.
