6. Aam Aadmi Party onion scam; Bought onions at Rs 18/kg, sold at Rs 30/kg
Breaking the heights of irony, Aam
Aadmi party which came into power
on the basis of accusing BJP and
Congress on corruption, have been
itself deep down drowned in the laps
of corrupt subsidy practices. In the
recent onion crisis in Delhi, AAP
party have been circled on making a
scam on the onions.

7. As per The National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India
Limited (Nafed) has made a statement that price at which AAP purchased
onions from Nasik and the price at which they sold at Delhi had a very huge
difference.
The RTI documents tell that Delhi AAP government had purchased 2511
metric tones of onions from Small Farmers’ Agri-Business Consortium
(SFAC) at an average price of Rs 18.57/kg, including cess and other local
expenses, but sold it at Rs 30/kg.

8. But as per RTI replies, the Kejriwal AAP government began the sale of onions
on August 10. However, it could only sell 575.32 metric tonnes of onions till
September 2. This means that more than 4,400 metric tonnes of onions remained
stashed in godowns while Delhiites were reeling under surging prices of the
vegetable. The price of onion skyrocketed to Rs 80 a kg in August and despite
the government’s assurances the price never came down below Rs 60-per-kg
mark.
