Within just 32 hours, four earthquakes struck Dhaka and nearby Narsingdi, sparking public concern and expert warnings about a possible larger quake. Following Friday’s 5.7-magnitude tremor, three smaller quakes hit on Saturday, two in Dhaka’s Badda area and one in Narsingdi’s Palash. Geologists suggest these could be ‘foreshocks’ indicating stress buildup along nearby subduction zones. Experts from Dhaka University and BUET explained that Bangladesh lies at the intersection of three tectonic plates, making the region seismically active and vulnerable to major earthquakes. They emphasized that Dhaka’s proximity to the Dawki Fault and the Burmese Subplate increases the risk of a significant event. Authorities and specialists urged the government to raise public awareness, identify risky buildings, and enforce earthquake-resistant construction standards. Citizens were advised not to panic but to remain alert and prepared for potential seismic activity in the coming days.
