The Great Himalayan Earthquake: A Mega Disaster Waiting To Strike!  
Beneath the breathtaking beauty of the Himalayas- lurks a silent, unseen threat that could change millions of lives in a matter of seconds. Every year, the Indian tectonic plate relentlessly pushes northward into the Eurasian plate, building unimaginable stress along a fault line that already ranks among the most dangerous on Earth. Scientists agree: a massive earthquake, potentially stronger than anything the region has seen in centuries, is not just possible—it’s inevitable. Over the past centuries, the Himalayas have witnessed numerous devastating earthquakes, and scientific consensus now warns of another looming disaster: The Great Himalayan Earthquake that is long overdue.
