Pakistan's big onions arrives in Sri Lanka today
Co-operatives and Internal Trade Minister Johnston Fernando said that the first consignment of big onions from Pakistan will arrive in Sri Lanka today.
Around 150 containers carrying big onions will arrive in the country today, he said.
Fernando told the media that steps would be taken to distribute the big onion stocks to the private sector as well.
We hope to distribute these stocks not only to Lak Sathosa outlets but even to the private sector to prevent the price of big onions from escalating, he said.
Attempts by an organized mafia to increase the prices will be averted with the arrival of big onions to the country. We expect that the price of a kilo of big onions will be reduced Minister said.
He said certain traders including several super markets were selling big onions at a higher price to make profits.
