Active Almora fault led to increase in earthquakes in 2023: Rijiju
Wednesday, 6 December 2023 The activation of the Almora fault in western Nepal was the reason for earthquakes in parts of north India and Nepal, Earth Sciences Minister Kiren Rijiju said on Wednesday. In a written reply in Lok Sabha, he said the activation of the Almora fault triggered significant mainshock earthquakes on January 24 (5.8 magnitude), October 3 (6.2), and November 3 (6.4). These mainshocks, accompanied by subsequent aftershocks, led to an increased frequency of earthquakes in 2023, Rijiju said, adding that the background seismicity remained unchanged during this period.
Union Minister Kiren Rijiju will contest the Lok Sabha elections from Arunachal Pradesh West, a seat he first represented in parliament from 2004-2009 and then again for two consecutive terms from 2014 to 2024. Kiren Rijiju's political journey is a testament to resilience, dedication, and unwavering commitment to public service. Mr Rijiju has been a passionate advocate of ushering in reforms in northeastern states. The Union Minister boasts an impressive over 90 per cent attendance record in parliament, raising questions of national and international importance.
