KHAGRACHHARI, Nov 05 (BSS): Tourists can now visit Sajek Valley and Khagrachhari, as the authorities lifted the month-long tourism restriction on these two popular destinations on Tuesday.
"All tourist centers in the district are now open, with Sajek Valley accessible via Khagrachhari district road," Khagrachhari Deputy Com-missioner Md Shahiduzza-man told reporters.
The reopening of Sajek Valley and Khagrachhari is expected to boost tourism in the region.
The local administrations initially imposed restrictions on September 25 following violence in Khagrachhari and Rangamati on September 19 and 20. On October 8, the restriction was expanded to a complete halt on tourism across the three hill districts.
