New Delhi: Nearly eight decades after Independence, Dibrugarh is set to resume international cargo movement through the Brahmaputra, with two vessels carrying 1,080 tonnes of methanol from Bogibeel to Bangladesh, marking the beginning of commercial operations at the newly constructed inland water port.
The methanol, produced by Assam Petro-Chemicals Limited (APL) at Namrup, will be transported from the Bogibeel port to Bangladesh. Two cargo vessels, around 30 years old, have been prepared for the operation, with each vessel carrying 27 containers.
