Recent seismic status of Shillong Plateau, Northeast India

Seismic status of Shillong Plateau of Northeast India has been studied, considering spatial and temporal pattern of the region and using seismicity data for the period 1808-2008.Cutoff magnitude and ANZA b-value has been estimated using earthquake data for the period 1963-2008.Seismic activity is observed to be very feeble along the major faults of
