Kashmir is on the boundary of two colliding tectonic plates: the small Indian plate that underlies most of India and Pakistan, including much of Kashmir; and the vast Eurasian plate that underlies Europe, China, Russia, and much of the Middle East.
the Eurasian and Indian tectonic plate boundaries collided causing a major earthquake, of a Richter scale 7.7
Earthquakes are not caused by weather. The are caused by movement of tectonic plates.
earthquakes can be caused by either tectonic or volcanic. Tectonic earthquakes are caused by movement of tectonic plates underneath the earth surface. Volcanic earthquakes are caused by volcanic activities underneath or above earth's surface.
It is the unsual movement of tectonic plates which causes tectonic earthquakes.
An earthquake is caused by the shifting of the earth's Tectonic Plates that make up the outer crust. The plates rub against each other which causes shock waves that can either be unnoticeable or dramatic, and even deadly to those who experience it. The place an earthquake occurs is called the Hypocenter.
A long section of tectonic plates under California means the State experiences small earthquakes every day.The tectonic plates under Mount Everest produced a 7.8 earthquake in Nepal in May 2015.Scientists know that as tectonic plates pass move by each other, it causes major upheaval underground which causes an earthquake.

When tectonic plates collide an Earthquake is created.

causes of earthquake
It is when two tectonic plates collide and they rubs, this causes the rubble which you get from the earthquake. You only get earthquakes if your country is in between a tectonic plate or on the tectonic plate.
they are caused by Tectonic plates which are constantly moving and when they crash into each other which causes a vibration and that triggers a earthquake...hope it helps :)
The sudden movement of the Pacific tectonic plate under the North American plate caused a massive earthquake and a tsunami.
Tectonic plates shifting or colliding with each other
Shifting of tectonic plates cause earthquakes.
