Bangladesh Lifts Hilsa Export Ban, Approves 3,000 Tonnes For India

The Bangladesh government approved the export of 3,000 tons of hilsa fish to India for the upcoming Durga Puja festival. Earlier this month, Bangladesh had banned hilsa exports following a change in leadership after the Sheikh Hasina government. Hilsa is a popular delicacy in both countries, especially during Durga Puja celebrations. The demand for hilsa is expected to be high.
