Answer:
· Something similar to a hair-line fracture in human bones. Now the main reason behind earthquakes in the Himalayas and adjoining areas has always been the friction between the Indian plate and the Eurasian plate. There's a movement along the fault lines which releases huge amounts of energy thereby causing earthquakes.

Answer:
This is happening due to change in tectonic plates. Delhi is close to the Himalayas, which was formed by mixing of tectonic plates such as India and Eurasia. Due to the movement in these plates, areas like Delhi-NCR, Kanpur and Lucknow are the most prone to earthquakes.
