Living in the Sundarbans delta is like walking the edge of a knife. The Sundarbans is a cluster of low-lying islands in the Bay of Bengal, spread across India and Bangladesh, famous for its unique mangrove forests. This hybrid landscape, where the waters of three mighty rivers, the Ganges, Padma and the Brahmaputra, meet to form the world’s largest bird-foot delta, is ecologically fragile and exposed to hydro hazards such as tropical cyclones, floods, and typhoons.
