Activities at Tamabil resume

Staff Correspondent, Sylhet
Import of coal, stone and other items through Tamabil land port in Sylhet resumed yesterday afternoon after remaining suspended for two days. About 50 loaded trucks reached Tamabil border yesterday afternoon, sources said. The border trade came to a halt due to the unrest in the Indian state of Meghalaya. The trouble erupted after clashes between Nepalese and Khasia people there four days ago, border sources informed. Bangladesh customs authorities had to suspend activities at Tamabil port until further notice after the Indian customs informed their counterpart about the trouble Monday afternoon.
