Description |
The World Heritage Site Sundarban region is characterized by lack of electricity, safe drinking water, health services, educational facilities, and has poor communication network. The main problems of this area are limited livelihood opportunities; high proportion of people belonging to backward communities; low levels of irrigation of cropping; high rate of unemployment; and high dependency on natural resources that threaten natural system and protected areas. The delta region is socio-economically backward due to low agricultural productivity, lack of proper health and medical facilities and also educationally backward. In the present study educational status is measured by educational facilities available in the study area as regards to Primary, Middle, High, and Higher Secondary level.
