Onion price in Kolkata shoots up to Rs 80/kg

Onion price touched Rs75-80 a kg on Wednesday, bringing back the fear of an unnatural spike last year when it was sold for Rs 150-160 a kg, forcing the government to sell it at subsidized Rs 55 a kg through its network of fair price shops. Traders feared the onion price may rise further till the new crop arrives in January.
