On October 30, 1998, I had suggested the then government at New Delhi to set up a separate ministry dedicated to onions. Had also suggested that an expert committee be formed under the Chairmanship of satirist Jaspal Bhatti who had worked relentlessly to create awareness by arranging country's first Onion Fashion Show. 

The present government can also do that. Appoint chairman of their choice and empower the Onion Ministry’s Expert Committee to look into the following areas (This is the old list and may be updated by those interested) :

1. Analyse the production, consumption, export and import of onions.
2. Set up an ‘Onion Museum’, in New Delhi, to preserve the rich heritage of different varieties of onions produced in India.
3. Finalise modalities to institute the ‘Best Onion Hoarder” Award.
4. Suggest penal action against those families whose onion consumption crosses 100 gms/month.
5. To promote consumption of alternative vegetables in place of onions.
6. To coordinate with other major ministries like Ministry of Potatoes, Ministry of Tomatoes and Brinjal Ministry for eradicating the remaining consumption of onions in the country.
7. To speed up research projects directed at developing a cheap onion essence for various food applications.

"There is an urgent need to motivate our countrymen to eventually give up the habit of using onion at least for their day-to-day food consumption." 

तू प्याज़ है किसी और का.. तुझे खाता कोई और है..
