Hundred tonnes of Atap rice were imported from India through the Banglabandha land port yesterday (26 November), after two years, in Panchagarh.

The shipment arrived in four cargo trucks, said Abul Kalam Azad, manager of Banglabandha Land Port Limited. 

The rice was imported by Pahar International through Al Amin Enterprise, marking a rare instance as this land port is primarily used for importing stones.

Nur Hasan, additional deputy director of the Plant and Quarantine Center at the land port, said that the imported rice underwent thorough testing and inspection. “The rice was released after submitting a report stating that it is of good quality and fit for consumption,” he added.

Banglabandha Land Port is the only land port in Bangladesh facilitating trade with India, Nepal and Bhutan via land. Although some goods have been exported through this port, the most imported is stone, according to port sources.
