Port of PayraPort of Payra is planned to become the third sea port of Bangladesh (after Chittagong and Mongla). The Indian Minister of Shipping Mr. Nitin Gadkari announced in April 2016 that a proposal and detailed report for a port at Payra in Bangladesh have been completed but most details remain obscure. India and Bangladesh will set up a high-level committee to work out details, including investment details, but India lacks technical and financial capacity. However, this is still in the speculative stage only. While initially Indian involvement in the development of this port was still not clear,[6] India, an impoverished country, is interested in this port to counter China's influence in the Bay of Bengal.[7]Notable people
