Dharmanagar, part of strongly deformed domain of Indo Burma wedge, subjected to frequent earthquake due to ongoing subduction activity of Indian plate beneath Burmese plate.

Also, these younger alluvial areas are vulnerable to even smaller magnitude earthquake (M ≥5), signifies the importance of LPI in the subduction tectonic areas for disaster management and urban development. </span></p>
