Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who is currently in India, on Friday expressed concerns over the government's move toban export of onions last month.

"Pyaaz se thoda dikkat ho gaya hamare liye. Mujhemaloom nahi kyun aapne pyaaz bandh kar diya? Thoda sa notice agar dete toh dusre jagah se laa sakte the. Maine cook ko bol diya ab se khana mein pyaazdalna bandh kardo. Aage se agar kisi bhi iss tarah aisa kuch karna hai, tohhume thoda sa pehle bata dena," (We have been slightly inconvenienced with the ban on onion. I don`t know why did you stop this? If you had given a notice to us, we could have got it from somewhere else. I have instructed my cook notto put onion while preparing food. If you want to do such a thing, then do letus know at the earliest), Hasina said in a light-hearted manner while speakingat the India-Bangladesh Business Forum.

The Bangladeshi leader said that her country was a little inconvenienced after the ban on onion export. Her hilarious comments in Hindi on the onion export ban left the audience in splits.

In order to contain the rising onion prices across the country, the Union Ministry of Commerce and Industry on September 29 amended export policy of onion from free to prohibited, which amounts to banning of all varieties of onions from export, with immediate effect.
