Know why this area remains disturbed
About 40 million years ago, the Indian subcontinent collided with the Eurasian plate. Because of this, the Himalaya Mountains were formed. Even today this mountain is rising one cm high every year. Because of this movement, earthquakes often occur here.
Apart from this, due to continuous collision, the ability of the layers to bear pressure ends. As the layers break down, the energy beneath them finds a way out. Because of this earthquake occurs in the Himalayan region. Afghanistan, Pakistan, and some parts of North India fall in the Himalayan range. Because of this, there is always a risk of an earthquake here.
