The Congress Party And Onions - Made For Each Other

The Congress party in India has a strong connection with onions!
They are 'Made For Each Other'.
The onion which goes into most gravies, curries, subzis, is an all-time favorite of the Indian masses with the exception of a section of staunch jains, practising ISKON devotees and some brahmins.
The onion succeeds in opening up the tear ducts of the masses but it has always made the congress party of India, shed tears of joy!
Onions have never failed to come to the rescue of the Congress whenever it was in trouble.
Who can forget the supporting role that onions played in the 1980 elections which brought Indira Gandhi to power.
History repeated itself in 1998 and 2003 elections when onions played a major role in reversing many a fortunes.
During the recent couple of months, when too many scams were causing great embarrassment to the power at the centre, the onion has come as a great relief and diversion. The masses are more concerned with the sudden soaring of onion prices than the lakhs of crores reportedly siphoned to offshore destinations through the hawala, all thanks to 2G.

Thanks to an active exchange of views on the net people cannot be fooled forever.
Smart people will buy less onions.
They will substitute onions with some other vegetable.
They will invest in the sattvic recipes' book published by the ISKON Centre which has no use for onions in any of those divine recipes.
Boycott purchasing onions.

The curtains are drawn for next year's elections.

Mahalakshmi.
