A ship named MV Senjuti already left the Chittagong sea port for Kolkata Shyama Proshad Mukharje port which will return with transshipment containers in the current week. The trial transshipment will start on return of MV Senjuti loaded with transshipment containers to Chittagong port, concerned sources said.
The trial transportation of goods started by road from Bangladesh to North-Eastern states of India earlier.
