Once underprivileged Panchagarh district is now a role model of development, as this backward locality has been changed by the planned development of the government.
The agriculture-dependent district has seen unprecedented development in the industrial, communication, infrastructure and other sectors, which has changed the living and livelihood standard and quality of people of the far-northeast area of the country.
The stories of the changed of the district had begun when Banglabanda Land Port was established in 1997 by the then Awami League government for import and export operations with Nepal.
In 2011, an agreement was also signed with neighbouring India for import and export activities. Along with, in 2017, trade with Bhutan started through this port. Since the immigration service started at this land port in 2016, it has become easier for Bangladeshis to visit India.
While visiting that port, several tourists from both the countries told BSS that it is very easy to complete immigration and other necessary procedures through this port and the immigration service is very good.বিস্তারিত
