India curbs land port imports from Bangladesh
India has imposed restrictions on the import of garments, agro-processed foods, furniture and other goods from Bangladesh through land ports, a move likely to disrupt trade flows and increase logistical challenges for exporters.
According to a notification issued yesterday by India's Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT), garments -- the single largest Bangladeshi export to India -- will only be allowed entry through two sea ports: Kolkata and Nhava Sheva near Mumbai. The rules take immediate effect.
