Unfair practices forced India to restrict trade
Financial Express Delhi
|June 29, 2025
INDIA IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS on the import of jute and allied fibre products from Bangladesh in view of its "unfair trade" practices including circumvention of anti-dumping duty that harmed Indian farmers, people familiar with the matter said on Saturday.
The new restrictions will apply to imports into India of Bangladesh's jute and allied fibre products across all land and seaports, with the exception of the Nhava Sheva seaport in Maharashtra.
The punitive measures were announced on Friday and they came into effect immediately.
There has been a sharp downturn in India-Bangladesh relations after deposed prime minister Sheikh Hasina fled Dhaka and took shelter in India in August last year in the face of a massive anti-government protest.
