People came to panic due to earthquake tremors
However, there is no news of any kind of heavy loss or injury, but people were scared due to continuous earthquake tremors. People came out of their homes and offices in many areas. Earthquake is not a new or unusual event in Pakistan, but when the tremors are felt repeatedly, it affects life.

Why do earthquakes repeatedly in Pakistan?
Pakistan is located in a highly seismic field. The reason for this is that this country is located on the border of Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. When the Indian plate collides with the Eurasian plate towards the north, the energy that causes the tremors of the earthquake comes out, which makes the shock feel. A large part of South Asia is seismically active. It is often felt light to strong earthquakes. Especially countries like Pakistan, India, Nepal and Afghanistan are affected by this tectonic movement.

Is there a possibility of a big earthquake in Pakistan?
Experts say that small and moderate intensity earthquakes will continue to occur in Pakistan from time to time. However, if there is an earthquake of large intensity (6.5+ or more), it can cause heavy havoc. In 2005, the 7.6 magnitude earthquake in Muzaffarabad, Pakistan killed more than 80,000 people and millions of people became homeless.
