Import and export activities between Bangladesh and India through Benapole land port will remain suspended for five days from 27 September to 1 October on the occasion of Durga Puja, the biggest religious festival of the Hindus.
Trading between the two countries through the land port will resume on 2 October, said port sources.
Benapole port director Aminul Islam, however, said that loading, unloading and delivery of imported goods which have already reached the port from India will continue during the trade suspension period.
Leave of all the staff at immigration and customs sections has been cancelled to facilitate services for the passport holding travellers, said Benapole customs deputy commissioner Marufur Rahman.
Customs and immigration sections at the port will remain open even on the day of Durga Puja, he said.
