Tsunami (soo-NAH-mee): a Japanese word that means harbor wave; a sea wave of local or distant origin that results from large-scale seafloor displacements associated with large earthquakes, major submarine slides, or exploding volcanic islands. Typically generated by seismic or volcanic activity or by underwater landslides, a tsunami consists of a series of high-energy waves that radiate outward like pond ripples from the area in which the generating event occurred.

Seiche (saysh): a series of standing waves (sloshing action) of an enclosed body or partially enclosed body of water caused by earthquake shaking. Seiche action can affect harbors, bays, lakes, rivers, and canals.
Yes, the sloshing of a swimming pool during an earthquake can be called a seiche. A seiche is the oscillation of water in a closed or semi-enclosed body of water, such as a swimming pool, due to seismic activity or other disturbances.
Earthquakes are sudden shaking of the ground caused by the movement of tectonic plates along faults, while tsunamis are large ocean waves typically triggered by underwater earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or landslides. The main difference lies in their nature: earthquakes are a geological phenomenon affecting solid ground, whereas tsunamis are water waves that travel across oceans and can cause widespread flooding when they reach coastal areas.
Tsunamis that are triggered by volcanic eruptions
The plate boundary between the Nazca Plate and the South American Plate does produce volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis. Hurricanes have nothing to do with plate boundaries.
Yes, of course, India can have tsunamis.

There is not any difference between tidal waves and tsunamis, except for that cyclones are high waves accompanied with heavy rain wheras tsunamis are only waves.
