While returning from Dhaka to India through Agartala-Akhaura Integrated Check Post (ICP) of Tripura, Doraiswami informed the same.

“As the COVID pandemic situation is slightly subsiding steps were initiated to introduce tourist visas. A limited-time visa will be issued as of now. The single entry visa will be given to the citizens of Bangladesh because there are still some Covid fears everywhere. More visas will also be issued if the situation improves” – asserted the Indian envoy in Bangladesh.
