While the Centre's decision to impose a 40% export duty on onions is facing opposition amid rising prices, Maharashtra's Public Works Department (PWD) Minister Dada Bhuse's statement has raked up controversy. The Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde) leader asked people to quit eating onions for a few months if they can't afford it, adding that it won't make any difference in their health. The former agriculture minister is the guardian minister of Nashik, a major onion producer.
