In a significant boost to connectivity between India and Bangladesh, a goods train loaded with stone chips in 30 wagons reached Chilahati in Bangladesh from India on Sunday afternoon through the Haldibari-Chilahati route. The train was dispatched from the Damdim station of the Northeast Frontier railway late on Saturday night. This rail route has been revived 56 years after being discontinued during the India-Pakistan war of 1965.
