Chouhan asks NAFED to buy onions
The main reason for this sudden crash is disrupted exports, thanks to the ongoing West Asian crisis that started with U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Iran on February 28, making it tough for India to sell onions abroad.
To fix things fast, Chouhan asked NAFED (the government's agri-marketing body) to start buying onions right away and help stabilize prices for everyone involved.
