The Congress on attacked the Centre over spiralling onion prices, accusing it of not taking appropriate measures to tackle the crisis. In a press conference here, the party’s Rajya Sabha member Amee Yajnik said the government has “failed utterly” in handling the matter.
“The government has failed utterly in this issue. What is the problem with the government? It seems that they know the problem about the hoarders and where these onions are stored but they are not ready to hit at the particular point…,” Yajnik said. Accusing the government of politicising the issue, Yajnik said, “Neither you (government) have a short term policy nor you have long term policy for onion, you want to make it a political issue so that all other issues are forgotten.”
