India hits Bangladesh imports after 'landlocked' remark sparks diplomatic backlash

India has restricted Bangladeshi imports via select ports after controversial remarks by Bangladesh’s interim Chief Adviser in China. Key goods like garments and processed foods are now limited to specific seaports. The move follows comments about India’s Northeast being ‘landlocked,’ sparking diplomatic backlash. The DGFT directive, seen as a countermeasure, marks a major jolt to Dhaka’s economy and cross-border trade dynamics.
