Dhaka, Nov. 18 -- Amid ongoing political tensions between Bangladesh and India, the country's export of ready-made garments (RMG) to its neighbouring market has continued to decline.
According to data from the Export Promotion Bureau (EPB), in the first four months (July-October) of the current fiscal year 2025-26, Bangladesh's RMG exports to India fell by 5.26 percent compared to the same period last year.
Over the past four months, Bangladesh exported RMG products worth $26.58 crore to India, down from $27.99 crore in the same period of the previous fiscal year.
Exporters attribute the drop mainly to the ongoing political strain between the two countries.
