LBA enactment to make Indo-Bangla bond stronger: Pankaj

Dhaka: Indian High Commissioner in Dhaka Pankaj Sharan said the relationship between Bangladesh and India will be stronger after the realisation of India-Bangladesh Land Boundary agreement.
He also expected the unfinished process of the agreement will be done soon.
The High Commissioner talked about the recently passed LBA at Kalihat Madrassa field in Phulbaria, Kurigram at about 10:00am on Sunday.
Earlier, Pankaj Sharan visited Dashirchara, an Indian enclave in Bangladesh. Rajshahi district commissioner accompanied him during his visit.
Ending the 41-year of wait of over 50,000 enclave people, the LBA bill was unanimously passed by the Lok Sabha on 7 May a day after Rajya Sabha passed the bill.
Indian parliament will again go through the process of passing the LBA as the earlier version approved by the two Houses of the parliament has some drafting errors.
According the agreement, India is to receive 2,777.038 acres of land and to transfer 2267.682 acres to Bangladesh, much of which has already been effected on the ground already.
