Endogenetic forces remain active in the internal part of the earth. Earthquakes evolve in the form of a sudden change due to these endogenetic forces. Normally, shaking of the earth’s surface is known as earthquake. This process of evolution of earthquake mainly takes place due to temporary imbalance in Isostatic equilibrium of a particular region. This process gives rise to destructive waves and it is a natural disaster.
