S A Shofiee, Sylhet :
After the stone looting that was discussed across the country, the white stone, the daughter of nature, had faded. Nature-loving tourists were in extreme despair.
Business collapsed for tourism-related people. In the darkness of such despair, the neighboring Bholaganj Land Port has raised a ray of hope.
This land port is getting complete soon. It will become of international standard.
There will be various facilities including hospitals, mosques, restaurants. The World Bank is bearing its expenses. There is also talk of a direct spot visit by a World Bank team soon.
The neighboring white stone tourist spot is being decorated quickly. The looted stone is being recovered from the water and soil by the joint forces. The work of replacing it is going on rapidly. Multiple sources, including the concerned officials, have given this information.
They say that Bholaganj is being developed as a tourism-friendly port. It is scheduled to be officially inaugurated in the first week of October. Already, 98 percent of the port work has been completed.
