India Imposes Import Restrictions on Bangladeshi Goods

India has implemented import restrictions on certain Bangladeshi products via land ports, affecting approximately $770 million in trade, or 42% of bilateral imports. The restrictions target items such as ready-made garments, processed foods, and plastic products, which are now limited to entry through specific sea ports like Kolkata and Nhava Sheva. This move is seen as a response to Bangladesh's growing economic ties with China and recent trade policies that have strained relations between the two countries.
