The exports with Iran from April to December were 319 million dollars whereas exports for the same period in 2018 was 209 million dollars, the minster informed the house adding Iran imposed ban on Pakistan rice exports during July to November every year.

About Siri Lanka the minister told the upper house that there was 31pc increase in a trade with Sri Lanka during the last five years.

The export items with Sri Lanka were rice and cotton whereas the import items from Sri Lanka included rubber, tea, coconut and fruits.
