Bengaluru, Dec 11 (TIWN) Though onions prices have eased by around Rs 50 per kg, expensive prices in Karnataka are set to last for a few more days until the inventory bought at high cost gets extinguished, said an official on Wednesday.

"Onion arrivals from Maharashtra, Gujarat, Nashik and Egypt have eased onion prices in the state," state agricultural marketing officer Siddagangiah told IANS.       He said onion arrivals on Wednesday are lesser than Monday and Tuesday in Karnataka and the prevailing high prices will continue for at least a week.
