Trade thru Hili port resumes after Eid

The cross-border trade between India and Bangladesh through Hili land port in Dinajpur resumed on Saturday after an eight-day closure for Eid-ul-Azha.

However, the immigration service through the port remained normal during the holidays.

Harun Ur Rashid, president of Importers' and Exporters' Group of the port, said the bilateral trade between the countries was closed for eight days from July 8 due to the Eid festival.
