Transit facility for India
What a gross mistake! Earlier our authorities concerned and some political leaders had claimed that if India is granted transit Bangladesh would earn huge revenue. But now India is bluntly refusing to pay transhipment fee/custom duty for carrying Indian goods to her eastern provinces through Bangladesh territory.
Bangladesh, as a sovereign and independent state, has the right to collect transhipment fee/custom duty. It is practiced all over the world. Would the foreign, finance and commerce ministers kindly clarify the matter in the greater interest of the country?
