India and Bangladesh have discussed a wide range of strategic projects including development of railway infrastructure, port infrastructure, Joint Study on Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), Border Haats, Regional connectivity through Multi-Modal Transportation, Harmonization of Standards and Mutual Recognition Agreement.

A Detailed Project Proposal (DPP) has been approved for developing container handling facility at Sirajganj Bazar.

For running freight trains between India-Bangladesh, 900 metre new siding line constructed at Benapole.

For allowing import of all commodities from India by rail via Darsana, the construction of loading and unloading platform completed at Darshana.
