Border with India close for 2 weeks

Bangladesh government has decided to shut the border with India for two weeks from Monday as the neighbouring country's coronavirus situation continues to worsen.

Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen came up with the disclosure on Sunday.

The closure, however, applies to travelers but import and export activities through the border will continue.

Earlier, the government closed air connectivity with India for the same reason.
