"We are getting good demand from those restaurants where we were earlier supplying green onions only," vegetable seller Anchalee said.
She said even Indians these days are frequenting this market to buy onions. Both dry and green onions are available here all year-round.
"I have purchased a 5-kg pack of onions. This I will take back to my home in Mumbai," Bhagyashree Pandey said. Retail prices of onions have quadrupled in many Indian cities over the past three months.
The Indian government says incessant rains have destroyed the crop badly in onion-growing states of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Odisha.
