Bangladesh receives first parcel train carrying dry chilies from India
Bangladesh has received the first parcel train at Benapole carrying dry Chillies from Andhra Pradesh, India.
Indian Railways dispatched a special parcel train consisting of 16 high capacity parcel vans carrying around 384 tonnes of dry chilies to Bangladesh, said the Indian High Commission in Dhaka on Monday.
The Special Parcel Express (SPE) traveled the distance over 1372 kilometers from Reddipalem in Guntur, India to Benapole in Bangladesh.
The transportation cost by railways works out to be cheaper compared to road transport.
