As if there was any less drama at the Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) onion potato market at Vashi, thanks to the prices of onions fluctuating every day, things took an ugly turn on Friday after a fight between the workers (known as mathadi kamgars) and a trader got out of hand. As a mark of protest, traders decided to shut their shops on Saturday.
