Yes. You are right. Bangladesh and Pakistan came out of India.

That's understandable, anything that comes out of india is of low quality.

Why are they even building this plant near the mangroves in the first place?? I just hope it is never built.... There are plenty of other options you guys should explore.

Topcat vs Bilal9, guess we will have to wait and see who is right in the end!

Yes - let the future events decide who's right and who's wrong.

Dighipara mine is a non starter. This feasibility study will be a waste of money.

Why so?

Govt. plan is ok. Problem is that 142 storied structure. I am skeptical because the group plays fraud games and the soil there cannot sustain the heavy vertical load.

You probably did not visit Purbachal by yourself. The soil is like Modhupur red soil and is very old unlike Dhaka's traditional swampy soil.

And you resort to name calling. Have you watched hasina's last press conference. She literally threatened everyone that if anyone try to interfere with her personal projects, she will beat them and shut the power supply. Do you have courage to mouth that "threatening with mob" words on her face?

.

That really worked and everything died down.
I would use the same word if I knew that will work..

First Bangladeshi cargo truck reaches Delhi under BBIN
Online Desk | Update: 11:45, Sep 06, 2016

The first Bangladeshi vehicle laden with imported consignment rolled into a customs depot in New Delhi as part of an accord that has done away with trans-shipment of goods from one country’s truck to another at international border, a time consuming and costly process, Indian newspaper Indian Express reported on Monday quoting PTI news agency.


Senior customs officials said that this is yet another measure in a series of trade facilitation initiatives taken by the government recently to help businesses cut transaction costs, said the report.

“It is a very big day that marks ease of doing business. The entry of Bangladesh’s cargo vehicles to India and ours to their territory will help in saving of days and transaction cost. It will further trade between the two countries,” chief commissioner of customs Vivek Johri told PTI.

He said the compulsion to tranship goods at the borders with neighbouring countries has been a major and “longstanding pain point” hindering free flow of trade, according to the report.

The report adds: It has been made possible under the Bangladesh-Bhutan-India-Nepal (BBIN) Motor Vehicles Agreement, which was signed in June last year.

The pact allows vehicles to enter each other’s territory and does away with trans shipment of goods from one country’s truck to another at the border.
There was no provision to allow trucks registered in India to enter Bangladesh and vice versa until the accord was signed last year. Johri said the measure would not only cut cost and time but also allow the BBIN region to fully exploit its potential for integration through trade.

The truck had left Dhaka on 27 August and entered India through Petrapole land border in West Bengal. It reached Inland Container Depot (ICD), Patparganj, this morning. The vehicle, which was carrying goods for Marks and Spencer’s, London, was fitted with a Global Positioning System (GPS) to help officials track its movement and help them ensure hassle free entry into the national capital via various states.

“It is a historic event for both the countries,” said Vinayak Azaad, additional commissioner of customs.

Officials from Bangladesh’s high commission and ministries of external affairs and road transport and highways were present during a function organised at the ICD.

“The event will help in increasing trade between Bangladesh and India. It also shows that trust exists between the two countries,” said Zahid-Ul-Islam, counsellor, Bangladesh high commission.

Drivers of the truck - Motiur Islam (32) and Md Rasel (28) - were enthusiastic over their first visit to India.
“It is a proud moment for us. I enjoyed driving on the India roads,” said Rasel. Motiur, who could barely speak in Hindi, was happy to be part of this historic event.

Political rhetoric. Nothing works better than calling someone RAW agent in this country.

Even you guys keep asking each other to go to Pakistan in India even for eating beef.

Yup he has "good relation" with India.
