In a bid to strengthen trade relations with Bangladesh, Orissa Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has urged the neighbouring country’s RMG manufacturers to invest in the state’s textile sector.
This issue was brought up by the Patnaik during his meeting with Bangladesh high commissioner to India Syed Muazzem Ali at the State Secretariat in Bhubaneswar on Friday.
Chief Secretary A P Padhi, Additional Chief Secretary to CM U N Behera and Tourism Secretary Gagan Kumar Dhal were present at Friday’s meeting.
Bangladesh sees a lot of scope for business between Orissa and Bangladesh, especially in the light of the recently signed shipping agreement between New Delhi and Dhaka, allowing coasters of either country to visit the others with merchandise with ease.
Currently, India is the largest trade partner of Bangladesh. India exports goods, worth US $5 billion to Bangladesh, which in return ships goods worth nearly US $1.0 billion
