Bangladesh Commerce Minister Tipu Munshi will visit Mizoram soon, according to government sources, to assess potential border trade projects. Munshi will inspect the proposed integrated check post in Lunglei district and a border haat in Mamit district with Mizoram Commerce and Industry Minister R Lalthangliana during his visit, they said.
The Bangladeshi government has already taken several steps at the proposed sites to facilitate border trade between Mizoram and the neighbouring country, Lalthangliana said. Mizoram shares a 318-km international border with Bangladesh. Munshi will leave for Kolkata on April 25, the sources said.
