India and Nepal opened the Fulbari Land Port - Boosts employment

Siliguri, November 25 (ANI): In a bid to boost bilateral trade, India and Nepal have opened the Fulbari Land Port, which in turn has created employment opportunities in West Bengal. Previously, the land route was accessible only to Bangladesh and Nepal, leading to a shortage of jobs for those living on the Indian side. India's trade ties with Nepal are seen as crucial as part of an effort to reduce the economic and political isolation of the country's eastern and northeastern states
