Border Haat in Tripura’s Sepahijala Dist set to reopen next month

The Kamalasagar-Kasba border haat in Tripura’s Sepahijala district, which had been closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic, is expected to resume operations by the following month, according to an official statement on Tuesday. In May, the border haat at Srinagar in South Tripura’s Sabroom subdivision had already reopened.

According to a report, during a meeting held at Kasba, the joint border haat management committee addressed the reopening of the trade facility at the earliest.

The committee has decided to initiate repair work at the haat before its reopening, as informed by Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), Bishalgarh Binoy Bhusan Das. A joint team from India and Bangladesh will visit the Kamalasagar-Kasba border haat next week to assess the repair requirements. Once the repairs are completed, a joint inspection is scheduled to take place in the first week of July to determine the final decision on reopening the border haat.
