Description : Tea is a major industry in Bangladesh and grows in the low hills of Chittagong and Sylhet. The tea plantation workers in Sylhet are mostly of the indegenous tribes called the Santals. Plucking is a specialised skill. Two leaves and a bud need to be plucked in order to get the best taste and profitability. The Surma Tea estate with over 8000 acres is one of the largest tea gardens.
