SHILLONG: Sloan Pala, President of Foreign Trade Chamber of Commerce Meghalaya has informed the organization has no objection to the weighbridge set up by the government at Sohkha
“We are all ready and willing to cooperate with the government in weighing limestone meant for exporting to Bangladesh”, Pala said.
According to the chamber of commerce, not only Dawki Land Customs Station (LCS), the government should utilize all the LCSs for export purpose.
Weighbridge anomaly
Meanwhile, after the Meghalaya International Exporters’ Chamber of Commerce approached the state government on Monday related to the functioning of weigh bridges, the concerned authorities on Friday inspected Dawki weighbridge for weighing boulders from Pynursla before they are exported to Bangladesh.
The Chamber of Commerce was surprised to know that the weighbridge at Sohkha is weighing the lime stones without any transport challan from the forest department which is illegal.
