Question
Why is sundarbans known as a Biospher Reserve? When did the Biosphere Reserve in Sundarban start?
Please give an account about the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve and its work, aims etc. Also give an account on UNSECO's MAB (Man and Biosphere) Project. Give as much details as possible


Answer
I have never heard of the Sundarban before your question.  Apparently is an UNESCO program (I believe that the name sundurban relates specifically to a location in India but I may be wrong) to attempt to maintain biodiversity. And, by the way, your question is phrased as if it were a homework question. I don't do homework questions.  However, I suggest that you look on the UNESCO website for information. Or try a google search.
Good luck.
