HilshaBangladesh has decided to send 500 tons of hilsa to India.

The Commerce Ministry took the decision on Wednesday as a gesture of goodwill, Commerce Secretary Dr Jafar Uddin told Bangla Tribune.

He also said the price of the silver fishes, which are being sent, will be determined by an agreement between the buyers and sellers.

As hilsa export is banned in Bangladesh, the government took the decision in light of the upcoming Durga Puja festival.
