There is a record that 242 thousand people died in the earthquake that happened in Japan in 1933. So far, the human loss is the highest in the world. In Nepal After 1990, there was an earthquake in the year 2072, causing huge loss of wealth. Since then, the topic of building code of conduct and standards has been raised a lot in Nepal.

Even now, while building concrete buildings and houses from villages to cities, the study and practical aspects of how to make earthquake resistant have not been discussed. 

After the earthquake of 2072, efforts are being made to build large buildings or residential houses according to the code of conduct for building construction. After the earthquake, we have started to adopt some sensitivity about the structure of the building structure . But this is definitely not enough. After the earthquake, the activity shown has started to relax again.  The earthquake after

2072 has happened especially in West Nepal. In 2080, more than 150 people lost their lives due to the earthquake in Jajarkot and West Rukum. Some studies have said that there is no risk of earthquakes in West Nepal. 

If our houses are destroyed by the earthquake, how much more damage will be done, it is not sure . Because the earthquake has not stopped . Earthquakes themselves do not kill people or damage physical structures. Earthquake experts say that the structures we have created ourselves are killing us. 

The shock of the earthquake is still being felt in the federal capital Kathmandu Valley and in various parts of the country. In the 50s, it was estimated that the damage caused by an earthquake would be more in the valley where a large population is living. Awareness was also given that the quality of the structure we built is more responsible for preventing such damage. But even then, whether we have built an earthquake-resistant structure or not, the damage also largely depends on it. 

The study of weak houses and structures in the valley was also done in the 50s . Not only did the study take place, but the issue of reducing the damage caused by earthquakes by making building laws was made public as a suggestion .

A study conducted three decades ago by the United Nations Development Program, the United Nations Housing Management Center and Hevitat for the Ministry of Housing and Physical Planning concluded that there is a risk of earthquakes throughout the country, including Kathmandu city.

At that time, it was decided to make laws related to land registration, residential conditions and building construction. Based on the study conducted in 32 districts, it was estimated at that time that the structures built in Kathmandu Valley and the state of urbanization would cause a lot of damage from earthquakes.  According to the

study, it was concluded that the territory of Nepal is extremely sensitive. According to the study, it was informed that the plates towards India and Tibet are moving towards each other . According to Amodmani Dixit, an expert involved in the research team, it was estimated that Kathmandu Valley would suffer the most damage from the earthquake.

The study estimated that 60 percent of the houses in Kathmandu are unsafe. At that time, it was also estimated that the epicenter of the earthquake between Dang, Ghorahi and Surkhet could be of 8 Richter scale. The conclusion of the study was that if there is a small earthquake in between, there will be less danger, otherwise, a large earthquake may also occur. According to the study, the amount of damage depends on the nature of the earthquake rather than the large one.

Earthquake engineer Richar Sarpe, who is studying the past situation in Nepal, announced the idea that there is less chance of a big one coming at once in small and small earthquakes. But he said that the unscientific condition of Nepal's urbanization and building construction is very critical.

The study team suggested that standards should be made and passed by the engineer while constructing the building, standards should be made, and necessary improvements should be made after technical inspection of the houses in the valley. The news prepared by journalist Pratik Pradhan by including these references along with the findings of the study team was published on the front page of Kantipur Daily on 3rd June 2050.
