Why and how the earthquake occurs?
Actually, an earthquake occurs due to the plates inside the earth colliding. Experts of geology tell that our earth is located on 12 tactonic plates. The energy that comes out when these plates collide are called earthquakes. According to experts, these plates below the earth revolve at a very slow pace. Every year these plates slide 4-5 mm from their place. During this time, if a plate gets away from someone, then someone moves from under someone. Meanwhile, the earthquake causes an earthquake.
