Export and import between India and Bangladesh have resumed through Akhaura land port after a two-day halt following a strike by Agartala Export-Import Workers Association, official sources said today.
“The workers resumed their work since yesterday after the officials of the Industries and Commerce department had persuaded the workers association and assured that the department would take positive steps to fulfill their demands”, Mr Pratap Datta, General Manager of Industries and Commerce department told reporters.
The workers of ‘Agartala Export—Import Workers Association’ called an indefinite strike on Saturday last, demanding more space for loading and unloading of goods from trucks, immediate repair of the roads, highways and adequate storage facilities for the imported goods and extension of time for loading-unloading.
