Earthquake Safety & Emergency Life-Saving Protocol

Standard operating procedures during and after tremors to prevent casualties.

During the Earthquake
Drop, Cover, and Hold On — take shelter under a heavy table or desk immediately.
Stay away from glass windows, unanchored tall cabinets, and hanging light fixtures.
Do NOT use elevators or rush panic-stricken down stairwells during active shaking.
After the Shaking Stops
Expect aftershocks. Secondary tremors often occur minutes or hours after the mainshock.
Inspect utilities for gas leaks or electrical short circuits. Turn off main lines if damaged.
Follow official emergency broadcasts and verified weather telemetry channels.

Understanding Bangladesh Seismic Plate Tectonics & Major Fault Lines

Bangladesh sits at the triple junction of three major tectonic plates: the Indian Plate, the Eurasian Plate, and the Burmese Microplate. The northern Dauki Fault along Sylhet and Mymensingh, together with the eastern Indo-Burma Megathrust running parallel to Chittagong Hill Tracts, represent active seismic hazards capable of producing major earthquakes (Mw > 7.5).
