Additionally, there has been no impact on biodiversity in the region under question. In the past two centuries, the location has burned down at least 25 times.
 
There is currently no fire anywhere in the Sundarbans fire area.  However, teams have been kept there for observation.  They will monitor the situation.  This region is dry.  Water is not available here except during the monsoon season.  
 
 
At this time every year the leaves fall and turn into organic matter.  It is easy to catch fire here.  Due to which forest fires occur almost every year in this region.  Members of different departments including fire service, coast guard, forest department, air force will keep a close observation on the spot today also on Monday.  Around 5 acres of land may have been damaged in the fire so far.
 
Chief Forest Conservator Md.  Amir Hossain Chowdhury said these things in a press briefing.
 
The press briefing was held at the conference room of Sundarban West Forest Division at 10:30 pm on Sunday (May 5).
 
At that time, the Chief Forest Conservator also said that the 5 acre area has been soaked with water.  The water has been removed by cutting the drain around.  Besides, from Monday morning, the place will be checked by drones to see if there is any fire anywhere.
 
In response to reporters' questions about the Sundarban fire, the Chief Conservator of Forests said, "We are all busy now to put out the fire."  I myself extinguished the fire and visited the scene.  So the reasons for the fire… we are not ruling out any reason.  Fire can also occur due to fire.  Those who caught fish… they deliberately set fire - we are not ruling that out either.  Also, we are not ruling out that the fire may have fallen from someone's hands by accident.  We are working with everything in hand.
 
 
In response to a question, he said that an expert team will be formed in the event of fire.  They will submit a report with a recommendation within the next 10 working days.  At the same time no biodiversity has been affected in the respective area.  The place has been on fire at least 25 times in the last two eras.
