Tripura CM Sends Pineapples to Bangladesh PM in Goodwill Exchange
Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha sent 100 cartons of the state's Kew variety pineapples to Bangladesh Prime Minister Tarique Rahman as a goodwill gesture, reciprocating a recent gift of Haribhanga mangoes from Bangladesh. The consignment was dispatched via the Agartala-Akhaura Integrated Check Post and received by Indian High Commission officials in Dhaka. Tripura declared pineapple its official state fruit in 2018, and officials expressed hopes that the fruit gains popularity in Bangladesh.
