Tuesday, April 26, 2011

Moulvibazar, April 26: Leaders of the Moulvibazar Chamber of Commerce and Industries have demanded that authorities should shift the head office of the Bangladesh Tea Board from Chittagong to Moulvibazar.

'We want the head office of the board to be shifted to Moulvibazar as the district is the main tea producing area of the country,' said MA Ahad, president of the MCCI, at a meet the press held at the MCCI office on Sunday.

He said the Bangladeshiya Cha Sangsad, an organisation of the tea garden owners, had supported the MCCI's another demand for establishing a tea auction shed at Srimongal of the Moulvibazar district.

There are two land custom ports in Moulvibazar district, Ahad said adding that the Monu River of Moulvibazar needed to be dredged urgently for easy transportation of goods.

He also suggested establishing two more land ports at Kurma and Dholaighat of the Moulvibazar district and setting up a wholesale market in the district headquarters.
