Border crossing at Akhaura land port resumed after 4 hours since server glitch
Passenger transit through Brahmanbaria's Akhaura land port was halted around 8:30am today (2 April) due to a server error in Agartala side of the border in India. The activities were again resumed around 12:45pm.
After 12 passengers entered India in the morning, the Agartala immigration authorities asked to suspend the passage of passengers due to a technical error in the server, said Akhaura Land Port Immigration Police Assistant Sub-Inspector Morshedul Haque.
He said the Agartala immigration authorities agreed to allow only passengers with air tickets to cross from 11:30am. Later, after fixing the server error, passenger traffic completely returned to normal from 1:00pm.
Akhaura land port is one of the most important land ports between Bangladesh and Northeast India. Every day 700-800 passengers pass through this port.
