Onion - The new costly stone

The prices of vegetables in India are skyrocketing and will soon meet the heights of Mt. Everest. Especially prices of onion has increased more than ever. It's sad that our government is not taking any measures to control the inflation.

I found this interesting photo which is circulating in emails , a ring with onion as a stone.

One new saying has been also framed for this situation,

"For the 1st time in the history of mankind "Need", "Comfort" & "Luxury" r sold at same price in India! Onions Rs.65, Petrol Rs 65 & Beer Rs.65 :D"
