It occurs due to continuous disturbances occurring beneath the earth crust.
Earth has 3 layers namely crust, mantel and core.
Mantle is a hard bedrock while core consists of molten lava made of alloy of iron and nickel.
Due to molten core, the inner layer of mantle heats up and become molten too and start moving towards the surface.
During this movement this molten material loses its heat and get solidified to form convection currents.
These convection currents results in continuous shifting of tectonic plates, which causes non uniform earth crust.
