With landmark rail-based cargo transportation having been initiated between India and Bangladesh, the Indian Railways successfully transported a consignment of 51 trucks to Bangladesh, reports Asian News International (ANI).

The development was made public by the Indian High Commission in Dhaka to celebrate the continued strengthening of economic ties and trade between the two nations with rich historical connect.


The development had also been hailed by Union Railway Minister Piyush Goyal who had in a tweet asserted that the Indian Railways stands at the forefront to promote exports.

It should be noted that India has been heavily investing in building strong rail-based infrastructure linkages with Bangladesh which is likely to not only bolster the bilateral relationship in terms of people connect and trade, but also hugely benefit the northeastern states which are largely landlocked.
