A panel of directors backed by newly-elected Unjha BJP MLA Asha Patel Monday wrested the local Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) from former BJP MLA Narayan Patel who controlled the Asia's largest spice market for the last 25 years. The Unjha APMC in Mehsana district of Gujarat mainly deals in cumin and Isabgol.

Asha Patel said this outcome was expected because farmers and traders wanted a change. "There were many issues. Farmers were complaining about vindictive policies and unauthorised collection of funds by the management. Farmers were under fear. This change was necessary to keep this APMC alive," she said.
