Export and import activities between Bangladesh and India remained suspended since Thursday morning due to Janmashtami, a religious festival of the Hindu community.

Abdul Jalil, deputy director of Benapole land port, said the trade activities between the two countries remained suspended since morning as there is a holiday on the both sides due to Janmashtami  celebration.

The trade activities will resume on Saturday, he said.

However, the immigration activities are going on as usual, reports UNB.
