Fig.1. Seismo-tectonic map of India and adjoining regions depicting epicentral locations of the earthquakes from the period 819-2008;
broadly classified tectonic provinces viz; subduction zones, Himalayan Collision zone, active intraplate zone and stable continental
region are delineated with different shades. The map also shows major active faults in different tectonic domains of the country
