A multi-facility Land Custom Station (LCS) and Immigration Centre will be inaugurated at Srimantapur in Sipahijala district bordering Bangladesh on Wednesday.
Union Minister of State for Commerce Nirmala Sitharaman will inaugurate the LCS at Srimantapur, about 45 km from the state capital, an official of Tripura Industrial Development Corporation said.
Built at a cost of Rs 16 crore on 2.83 acres land bordering Comilla district of the neighbouring country, the LCS is expected to boost the trade between Tripura and Bangladesh, the official said.
"This LCS is almost like an integrated checkpost having the facilities like weigh bridge, warehouse, computerised immigration system, bank with currency exchange facility among others," according to the official.
