History of Sundarban National Park-A Complete Life Cycle

The Chaand Sandagar merchant community were the first reported community who built a city in the now existing baghmara forest block of sundarbans. The ruins of the city are evidence to this fact. Emperor Akbar built many buildings around sundarban, which were later occupied by Portuguese pirates, salt smugglers and dacoits in the 17th century. Evidence can be seen at the ruins left at Netidhopani.

Much later the sundarbans was declared a reserved forest in 187nal park in 1984.
