Border crossings from Bangladesh - Rajshahi Division to India

Does anybody know how's the situation at the next border crossings (Rajshahi Division) from Bangladesh to India :

1. From Godagari (Bangla) to Lalgola (India): is it allowed (for foreigners) to exit Bangladesh and enter India via this border point, with a tourist visa ?? Do i need any roadpermit or do i have to pay some departure taxes ??

2. Border at Gaud: is it possible to visit the acient site at Gaur (India) from the Gaud bordercrossing ? enter/exit same question as above.

3. And how is the situation at the Hili bordercrossing ??

Thanks to all.

Officially there are two: Godagari and Shona Mosjid

As per Bangladesh Official Immigration website (www.immi.gov.bd), there are two checkposts listed in the arrival/departure port pull-down menu. They are: Godagari and Shona Mosjid. I never used any of them, but from a newspaper report (confirmed), "Shona Masjid-Mohadipur" check post
has been opened for both cargo (mainly) and travellers (with valid visa) for a long time. There are also report that some travellers are also using "Godagari-Lalgola" checkpost. Communication at Shona Masjid is pretty good, but at Godagari it's very tough, you might have to walk miles or/and use boat to reach Lalgola (India).

Crossing the Border

Moving on? Talk about countries that surround India. Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Tibet, etc...
