TELEGRAPH INDIA | India-Bangladesh trade halts after exporters allege corruption
08 September 2020
Border trade between India and Bangadesh through the Mahadipur land port in Malda came to a halt for four hours. This was followed by allegations of delay in the installation of a power generator and acts of corruption levelled by the Mahadipur Exporters’ Association and Mahadipur Clearing & Forwarding Agents’ association. The trade resumed at noon after customs officials assured the exporters lobby of looking into their grievances. Sunday’s suspension of the border trade was a consequence of the events that took place when only 50 per cent of the goods-laden trucks could cross the border because of power cut between 10am and 4pm.

The average price this year has been around half of the 2019 figure at $33.6 per barrel.

08 September 2020
The garment and apparel exporters in Gautam Budh Nagar district are not a happy lot in the wake of the Covid-19 outbreak.

After the outbreak of Covid19, around 600 garment export units have been closed and the units in Noida suffered a collective loss of over ₹3,000 crore. The pandemic was sudden, and the industry was caught unawares. Orders had already been shipped to overseas buyers and, instead of accepting them, the buyers are bargaining with Indian exporters saying since their companies have been declared bankrupt, there is no legal obligation on them to make payments.
