A Transit Of Ties, Trade & Regional Connectivity

With sustainability and local environment at the forefront of its design, a new integrated check post is set to upgrade connectivity and relations between India and Bangladesh

- 

To commemorate 50 years of diplomatic ties between India and Bangladesh, and establish regional connectivity between the two nations, the Indian government has proposed the development of an ICP (Integrated Check Post) to connect Sabroom in India to Ramgarh in Bangladesh. The project offers integrated border management facilities to provide a seamless experience to passengers and cargo loaders crossing the border frequently. One of the primary objectives of the project is to split the traffic chaos, provide dedicated lanes for each type of vehicle, while monitoring all movements on the border, and establishing warehousing, storage, and quarantine facilities. With the help of the proposed ICP, the northeastern states could access the Chittagong port to increase connectivity between the two countries, and also boost economic activity by providing close access to global shipping lanes.
