Amritsar: In reply to the termination of supply of onions to India by Pakistan, Indian exporters have decided to stop the supply of tomatoes and other vegetables to Pakistan. Pakistan earlier had stopped trucks bringing onions to India via Atari. Indian exporters say that by doing so Pakistan has broken the agreement and now they have no other option but to terminate supply of vegetables to Pakistan.

The general secretary of the Amritsar Exporters Chamber of Commerce, Rajesh Sethia, and the president of the Dry Fruit Commercial Association, Anil Mehra, said that India has been sending onion, tomato, green chilli, ginger etc to Pakistan and has been receiving items such as dry fruits through Atari.

Now since Pakistan has suddenly stopped supply of onions, as a retaliatory measure, Indian exporters have decided to stop supply of vegetables to Pakistan. All the businessmen have been informed about the decision.

    While Krishna assured that Pakistan would send more quantity of onion by ship and rail route to India, there has been no word from authorities on lifting the ban on export of the vegetable via the land route Wagah-Attari border The ban is the main reason for the recent spike in onion prices.
