Correct option is C

The correct match of earthquake hazards with their respective years is:

1. Koyna Earthquake (A-III) – 1967 

   • Location: Maharashtra
   • Magnitude: 6.5 (Reservoir-induced seismicity due to Koyna Dam).
   • Impact: One of the strongest earthquakes in peninsular India.

2. Latur Earthquake (B-I) – 1993 

   • Location: Maharashtra
   • Magnitude: 6.2 (Devastating impact in Killari region).
   • Impact: High casualties due to poorly built structures.

3. Bhuj Earthquake (C-II) – 2001 

   • Location: Gujarat
   • Magnitude: 7.7 (Severe destruction in Gujarat, especially Kutch).
   • Impact: Over 20,000 deaths, major urban damage.

4. Darbhanga Earthquake (D-IV) – 1988 

   • Location: Bihar-Nepal border

• 1991 Uttarkashi Earthquake (Magnitude 6.8) – Caused landslides in Uttarakhand.
• 2015 Nepal Earthquake (Magnitude 7.8) – Affected northern Bihar and Nepal.

• Himalayan Region: Collision of Indian and Eurasian plates (high seismic activity).
• Koyna & Latur (Deccan Plateau): Reservoir-induced seismicity due to dams and faults.
• Gujarat (Bhuj): Lies on the Kutch seismic fault.
