LS Elections 2024: Onion wars rage between the govt and farmers in Nashik

Farmers elect their representatives with the expectation that the government will address their difficulties. Onions are produced in large quantities in Nashik and farmers receive a specific price for their crop during a particular season each year. At that time, the government intervenes, often adopting policies that lower prices. Despite promises of fair prices for agricultural produce during elections, politicians shift their focus to traders once in power.
