India helps BD, amid their their hate propaganda

 A Staff Correspondent report:

The death of Inqilab Manch convener Osman Hadi, his transformation into an anti-India icon, the attacks and vandalism of the Indian embassy and diplomatic residence in Bangladesh, all of which are attributed to an Indian conspiracy, have created an extremely alarming situation centered on anti-India sentiment across the country. The onion market in the country is on fire due to the extreme crisis! It is being sold at a price of more than 100 taka per kg.

In such a situation, onions have been coming from India through the Benapole land port in Jessore for the past 3 days. The latest import was on Saturday, December 20, when 90 metric tons of onions were imported.

According to government sources, the price of imported onions per kilogram has fallen to around 42 to 43 taka in Bangladeshi taka. After the start of onion imports, the price in the domestic market has already decreased by 10 to 15 taka per kilogram.

The consignment reached Benapole Port at around 6:30 pm on Saturday. Benapole Port Director Shamim Hossain said that a total of 210 metric tons of onions have been imported in 7 trucks through India’s Petrapole Port in the last 3 days.

Rafiqul Islam, owner of M/s Royal Enterprises, a company that clears imported onions, said that importers from different parts of the country have imported these onions.

He further said that the first consignment of 90 metric tons of onions arrived in three trucks on Monday, the second consignment of 30 metric tons in one truck on Wednesday, and another 90 metric tons in three trucks on Saturday evening. Earlier, 60 metric tons of onions were last imported through this port in September this year.

Meanwhile, Abu Faisal, owner of importing company M/s Kapotaksha C&F Agent, said that onions are being imported from India at a price of 305 US dollars per ton. Adding port and import-related incidental costs, the price per kg stands at 42-43 taka. Transportation and labor costs will be added to this during marketing.

Benapole Port Director Shamim Hossain also said that some more onion trucks waiting to enter Bangladesh are at Petrapole Port in India. They will enter Benapole Port in phases. All necessary measures have been taken at the port for the quick unloading of onions.

While Bangladesh opens its propaganda gun against India, our country doing this facility. Let th BD people understand, who is their mithra and who is their foe.
