উত্তর: Frequent Earthquakes Spark Panic and Concern Across the Country Staff Reporter, The Daily Star, Dhaka, 12 March 2026 : Bangladesh has recently experienced a series of frequent earthquakes, which have become a major cause of alarm for the general public. Although most of these tremors were of mild to moderate intensity, the recurring nature of these shocks has triggered widespread panic, especially in densely populated urban areas like Dhaka, Sylhet, and Chattogram. "The ground shook so suddenly that we barely had time to react. It's terrifying because we don't know when a bigger one might hit," said a resident of a high-rise building in Uttara. Students and office-goers have also expressed their anxiety, noting that the fear of a major disaster is constantly on their minds. Experts say these frequent minor tremors are a warning sign of a potential (সম্ভাব্য) massive earthquake in the future, as Bangladesh sits on several active fault lines. Dr. Mehedi Ahmed, a seismologist based in Dhaka, noted that "frequent tremors indicate significant tectonic (টেকটোনিক) activity beneath the surface. To minimize casualties, we need effective (কার্যকর) disaster management, strict adherence to the National Building Code, and massive public awareness (সচেতনতা)." He emphasized that many buildings in Dhaka are not earthquake-resistant, which increases the risk of a catastrophe (বিপর্যয়). Government authorities have acknowledged the situation and promised to strengthen rescue operations and safety monitoring. They have urged people not to panic and to follow safety protocols during tremors. Meanwhile, citizens are calling for regular earthquake drills and mandatory (বাধ্যতামূলক) safety inspections of all old and risky buildings. As the threat remains, proper preparedness and structural safety are essential for the nation's survival.
