Kamalasagar Border Haat

Kamalasagar Border Haat is a designated India-Bangladesh border market located at Kamalasagar in Sepahijala District, Tripura, about 27 km from Agartala near the Kasba Kalibari Temple and Kamalasagar Lake. Established to promote local trade and people-to-people contact, it allows vendors and buyers from both countries to trade local produce and handicrafts in a fenced, jointly managed marketplace under strict security supervision.

Visitors can expect a fenced open-air marketplace located directly on the India-Bangladesh zero line, with rows of stalls on both sides of the border. The setting is rural and flat, near Kamalasagar Lake and paddy fields. Visitors undergo identity verification and security checks before entering. Inside, they can see vendors selling vegetables, fruits, spices, handicrafts, garments and household items, observe cross-border interaction, and explore the adjacent Kasba Kalibari Temple complex.

Kamalasagar Border Haat was inaugurated in 2015 as one of the first India-Bangladesh Border Haats in Tripura, following bilateral agreements to revive traditional border trade and strengthen local livelihoods. It was established alongside the Srinagar Border Haat to facilitate regulated trade of local produce within a 5 km border belt.

The haat serves as a platform for cultural exchange and community interaction between border communities of India and Bangladesh, showcasing local agricultural products, handicrafts and food traditions of Tripura and adjacent Bangladeshi districts.
