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.
In the history of Nepal's aviation, tragedy has etched a profound mark, resonating far beyond its borders. Over the span of fifty years, five catastrophic plane crashes have punctuated the nation's skies, each leaving an indelible scar on its collective consciousness. The deadliest among them unfolded on a fateful day in 1992 when Pakistan International Airlines Flight 268 tragically crashed while approaching Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport. All 167 souls on board were lost in an instant, marking it as the country's worst aviation disaster to date.
