India has banned the import of certain jute products and woven fabrics from Bangladesh through land routes, according to a notification issued by the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) on Friday.

The import of these items will now be permitted only via the Nhava Sheva seaport in Maharashtra, reported PTI.

This move follows an earlier decision on May 17, when India imposed port restrictions on the import of goods such as readymade garments and processed food items from Bangladesh.

The restricted goods include jute products, Songkran flax yarn, single yarn of jute, multiple folded yarn, woven flex fabrics, and unbleached woven jute fabrics.
