Kolkata: The Bangladesh government presents a prize to the people of Bengal in front of Durga Puja by allowing exports of 4,500 tons of Hilsa, up from 2,080 tons permitted on Monday.
But clauses require exports to be completed before the fishing ban – when Hilsa Breed – kick on October 4 has surrounded the field.
Exporters of Bangladesh and Indian importers say it is almost impossible to conclude large transactions in the next 10 days.
Previously, the Ministry of Trade Bangladesh had mistakenly gave up to October 10 to complete trade.
“On Wednesday and Thursday, Bengal received 120 tons of Hilsa.
In the next 10 days, we can realistically get 600 tons further.
That means exporting more than 3,800 tons of fish will remain unrealized.
It will be a big disappointment for Hilsa lovers .
Therefore we urged the Bangladesh government to allow export to continue after a fishing ban in the country, “said Secretary of the West Bengal Fish Importer Syed Anwar Maqsood.
On Thursday, Maqsood spoke with the Bangladesh High Commissioner in Delhi, who asked him to talk to the authorities to allow the export of all shipping permitted.
Maqsood explained that while it was impossible to land 4,600 tons of Hilsa in Herba in 10 days, Indian importers also needed to apply for the Sanitation Import Permit (SIP) from the Ministry of Agriculture India.
The permit was issued on the names of export institutions.
Many first Hils arrived at the market throughout the city on Thursday, causing buzz among buyers.
Hilsa weighing between 800G and 1.5kg sell for RS 1,300-Rs 1,600 A Kg.
Bangladesh doubled the gift of Hilsa, but a date of the hurdle clause
