Shortage of onion supply fuels spike in prices
The surge in onion prices is driving people across the country to tears. The price of the vegetable has almost doubled from Rs. 16 per kilogram last month to Rs. 28 this month. In some places, like Delhi, it now costs between 30-35 rupees a kilogram. In wholesale markets, the prices of onions have gone up by more than 50 per cent since last month.
