Dear friends of science and Geology,

Looking back to the records of the major earthquakes of Kutch the major
earthquake epicentre is on the move from the West to towards the East 68.6 ==>
==>70.0 ==>70.28, and possibly future epicentre may be more towards the east in
RAPAR vagad fault area as the recent moderate earthquake suggests that the
Vagad fault is becoming Active.

Though many earthquake records are missing from the records e g. 1930s when
Pragmahel was damaged on New year day. and we need to keep the records to help
the check of the future epicentre.

Also the earthquake energy released has regular intervals too but difficult to
predict the time and also more difficult with out the record data. 2001 - 1956 =
45 years (9 x 5) and 1956 - 1819 = 137 is near to (9 x 5) x3. But we need more
data to do further work on it and so we need to keep our records updated.
