Why do earthquakes occur?
There are seven plates present inside the earth and the movement of all these plates continues. The place where these plates collide with each other is called fault zone. When the plates collide with each other, energy is released. The movement that occurs due to this is called earthquake. The closer the epicenter of an earthquake is to the surface, the greater is the possibility of devastation. However, the area remains limited. These plates are about 30-50 km below the surface.
