Earthquake prone areas  in India

These states are highly earthquake-prone, located in Seismic Zone V, the most active seismic zone in India.

North-Eastern States

These areas experience frequent seismic activity due to the tectonic collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates, falling in Seismic Zones IV and V.

Himalayan Region

Vulnerable to moderate to high earthquake activity, these regions lie in Seismic Zone IV.

Ganga Valley

Particularly Gujarat (e.g., Bhuj), which has experienced significant earthquakes, falls in Seismic Zone V.

Western India

While less active, some regions may experience minor tremors, mostly located in Seismic Zone II and III.
