As heavy tremors in Delhi after 6.2 Magnitude earthquake in Nepal, on the other hand, according to the Netherlands-based Solar System Geometry Survey (SSGEOS), a significant earthquake will strike Pakistan within the next 48 hours. This prediction made headlines.
The Dutch scientist who works for SSGEOS has a history of accurately forecasting earthquakes, most notably the powerful quake that struck Turkey earlier this year and claimed the lives of over 47,000 people.
According to the scientist’s most recent forecast, there has been a significant increase in electric activity along the Chaman fault lines, raising the possibility of a strong earthquake within the next 48 hours.
According to the report, changes in the electric charge in the atmosphere close to sea level have been observed, and the region bordering Pakistan and Afghanistan may soon experience strong tremors.
