Comparing Bhattacharyya and Kshirsagar bounds with bootstrap method

In the class of unbiased estimators for the parameter functions, the variance of   estimator  is one of the basic criteria to compare and evaluate the accuracy of the estimators. In many cases the variance has complicated form and we can not compute it, so, by lower bounds, we can approximate it. Many studies have been done on the lower bounds for the variance of an unbiased estimator of the parameter.
