As onions touch Rs 165 a kilo, Centre banks on imports

印度洋葱价格涨到每公斤165卢比，开始依靠进口

NEW DELHI: The government expects to get at least 35,000 tonnes of imported onion from next week onwards to increase availability as mandis across the country wait to get enough supply of domestic onion.

新德里：印度预计从下周开始将至少进口3.5万吨洋葱，以增加供应，全国各地的居民都在等待充足的国内洋葱供应。

While the data available from consumer affairs department showed that onion prices touched Rs 165 a kg in Panaji on Thursday, which was the highest, there are reports that in some parts of the country prices have breached Rs 180 a kg.

尽管消费者事务部提供的数据显示，周四帕纳吉的洋葱价格达到了每公斤165卢比的最高水平。有报道称，部分地区的洋葱价格已经突破了每公斤180卢比。

Amid the growing crisis due to short supply of onion because of nearly 26% decline in production during this season, a group of ministers under Union home minister Amit Shah reviewed the situation. Sources said though the imports lined up by both the government and private parties won’t be enough to meet the requirement, they expect the situation will improve once the availability increases to some extent.

洋葱产量在这一季下降了近26%，导致供应短缺，危机不断加剧。在这种情况下，印度联合内政部长阿米特•沙阿下属的一群部长对形势进行了评估。消息人士称，尽管政府和民间团体的进口不足以满足要求，但他们预计一旦供应量增加到一定程度，情况将有所改善。

Union consumer affairs minister Ram Vilas Paswan tweeted that Centre is importing 6,090 tonnes of onions from Egypt and another 11,000 tonnes from Turkey. These will land in India between December 15 and January 15. “Another 4,000 tonnes will arrive from Turkey by mid-January. Moreover, three more tenders of 5,000 tonnes each have been floated,” he tweeted.

联邦消费者事务部长Ram Vilas Paswan在推特上表示，印度从埃及进口6090吨洋葱，从土耳其进口11000吨，将于12月15日至1月15日期间运抵印度。另外4000吨将在1月中旬从土耳其运抵。此外，还有三艘5000吨已装船。

Paswan said the government is importing onions through state-owned trading agency MMTC and private players are also being encouraged. He said due to continuous rain across several parts of the country, particularly in major onion growing states of Karnataka, Maharashtra and Rajasthan, the crop has been badly damaged.

Paswan表示，政府正通过国有贸易机构MMTC进口洋葱，私营企业也受到鼓励。由于印度部分地区持续降雨，特别是在主要的洋葱种植区，如卡纳塔克邦、马哈拉施特拉邦和拉贾斯坦邦，洋葱的收成受到严重影响。

Instead of ships use Rafael planes to get them fast so that onion eaters woes are reduced.Next year price of onions will be Rs1000 .There should be a ministry of Onions in Central govt as well as all state goats to arrest prices so that people residing in cities get them at right prices.

不要用船运，应该用“阵风”战机来运洋葱，速度更快。明年洋葱的价格将涨到每公斤1000卢比，印度中央政府应该成立一个洋葱部，这样住在城里的人就能以实惠的价格买到洋葱。

As advised by Modi, jobless Bhakts are frying a lot of Onion Pakoda. So there is a huge demand of onion. And that is why this high price.

在莫迪的建议之下，失业的人都去卖炸洋葱丸子了，导致洋葱的需求量很大。这就是洋葱价格高居不下的原因。

Solution according to bhakts is don't eat onions. Nirmala tai said in parliament that her family doesn't eat much onions so all this price rise is just nonsense aimed at tarnishing image of BJP.
