Import of onion from India has started again through Hili Land Port after remaining suspended for one month.

Indian trucks carrying onions started entering Bangladesh through Hili check-post on Thursday afternoon, according to a representative of Hili Landport Export-Import Group.

Kamal, the representative of Hili Landport Export-Import Group, said onion imports resumed in January this year after the Indian government lifted the ban on onion exports. He said, "We had to count huge losses by importing onions in the busy season of the country and all traders stopped importing onions from January 27". He also mentioned that we have imported onions again after a long month due to the decline in the supply of domestic onions in the country's market.
