our cotton their onion

Dear sir
The Editorial “our cotton, their onion(Jan 13) made interesting reading. The floods in Pakistan has affected the cotton crop and is reeling by short supply of of this commodity for their domestic and yarn industry, which is considered to be the main stay of its fragile economy. At the same time the unseasonable rain has affected the onion crop in India. India has cotton in surplus for their export and Pakistan has more than enough onions for their disposal. If both countries shed their embittered relations and come forward for mutual talks, both countries will be mutually benefited and not only that it will pay the way for a paradigm shift in India /Pakistan relations
