Trade between Bangladesh and India through the Hili land port in Dinajpur district remained suspended since Monday morning due to holiday for Janmashtami, a major religious festival of the Hindu community.
Sheikh Ashraful, officer-in-charge of the Hili Immigration Checkpoint, said the import-export activities are suspended but passenger transit through the immigration checkpoint is continuing as usual.
Trade through the land port will resume Tuesday, said Wahedur Rahman Ripon, Office Secretary of the Hili Land Port Import-Export Group.
