Afghanistan opens new export route to India through Iran's Chabahar port

23 trucks carrying 57 tonnes of dried fruits, textiles, carpets and mineral products were dispatched from western Afghan city of Zaranj to Iran's Chabahar port, to be shipped to Mumbai. Earlier, India had sent 1.1 million tonnes of wheat and 2,000 tonnes of lentils to Afghanistan through Chabahar port, that both countries developed jointly with Iran, to allow trade bypassing Pakistan.
