While geologists grapple to predict earthquakes, Pakistan's ISI says one will hit Indian Ocean

Pakistan's Earthquake Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Authority (ERRA) received information from country's intelligence agency about a 'likelihood of large scale earthquake'.

Point one can note and probably laugh at is that the information was not released by Pakistan's meteorological department but their intelligence agency - Inter Service Intelligence (ISI).

ERRA's Rehabilitation Wing released a notice saying, "An information report has been received from Directorate General, Inter Sevice Intelligence that there is, reportedly, likelihood of large scale earthquake."

if they want to test a nuke..then why bring all the attention of all world nations to the Indian Oceans.
The department in question is ISI and naturally if ISI is saying such world nations will take it in the sense of a nuke test. Mostly nations who want to test something nuclear never give out any info prior to the test. but this statement from ISI is contradictory to it.

It could be some propaganda to control the paki population internally in the name of precaution for a natural disaster. In the name of preventive measure, they can control the paki citizens..

Or its that as if the ISI took the fake news seriously, shows the ISI's "competitiveness" in eves dropping on whats coming from India :D

Massive Indian Ocean Earthquake and Tsunami Expected by the End of 2017?


An Indian man's prediction is based on his purported psychic abilities and carries no scientific weight

There is verifiable evidence that a large earthquake will strike the Indian Ocean and cause a deadly tsunami before the end of 2017.

RATING
FALSE
ORIGIN
A man who claims to have extrasensory perception (ESP) allegedly sent a letter predicting a devastating tsunami by the end of 2017 to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In his letter, which went viral in September 2017, Babu Kalayil claims to have predicted that an earthquake will strike somewhere in the Indian Ocean, causing the tsunami:

Respected Sir,

In the Indian Ocean there is an earth quake expecting before 31st December 2017. This Vigerous earth quake can be shaked the entire coast of the Asian continental areas. More over this effect will even replaced the boundary of sea shore. This will extent in to Eleven countries named, India, China, Japan, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Thyland, Indonesia, Algantstan, Srilanka and will proceed into Gulf countries too, The possibility to strike the “SHEESHMA” storm during this period which exist for about 120km to 180km with mighty power. Heavy rain harbor waves (Tsunami).

The above observation made on August 20, 2017 with the help of ESP.

Thanking You,

Yours Sincerely,

Babu Kalayil


First and foremost, earthquake prediction — at least when limited by things that have a scientific basis — is one of the major as-yet-unrealized dreams of seismology. The best science can offer outside of probability estimates are warnings after an earthquake has occurred but prior to its effects reaching an area further away — something that provides advance notice on the order of seconds, but which is not, strictly speaking, a prediction.

ESP is not supported by any rigorous science, but even if it were, Kalayil’s claims — encompassing a four-month period of time and the entirety of an ocean basin that frequently experiences earthquakes — are pretty vague. What science can tell us is that, based on the geologic record of tsunamis from northern Sumatra that goes back 1,000 years, tsunamis on the scale Kalayil describes in that region are quite rare:

These findings […] suggest that damage-causing tsunamis in Aceh [a region in northern Sumatra] recur infrequently enough for entire human lifetimes to typically elapse between them. Such recurrence adds to the challenge of preparing communities along the northern Indian Ocean shorelines for future tsunamis.

This is not the first time Kalayil has turned up in the news. A dubious 2005 story published in the Indian newspaper The Hindu described an alleged effort (which we cannot verify) by a physicist identified as “G. Renuka” at the University of Kerata to test Kalayil’s powers of ESP:

Dr. Renuka says that on August 2, 2001, Babu had predicted the presence of water on Mars, a month before a team of Hungarian scientists reported the presence of water on the red planet. Scientists at the Berkeley University of California had claimed to have discovered a new planet, 50 light years from the earth, in 2004. Mr. Babu had, in 1998, predicted the existence of such a planet. Dr. Renuka also notes that Mr. Kalayil had predicted, again using ESP, sounds similar to thunder emanating from Titan, one of the 10 moons of Saturn. It was in October, 2004, that he made this prediction, which was firmed up on January 16, 2005.

Regardless of the veracity of any of those claims (which also sound quite broad), fear-mongering reports that his letter should hold any weight whatsoever are misinformed. While his stationery is impressive looking and contains an excellent play on words (defining ESP as both extrasensory perception AND earth and space prediction), he is merely an individual who believes he has the power to see the future.

Indian fact-checking website Boom attempted to contact Kalayil through the numbers listed on his letter, but received no response. As such, we rank the claim of any valid prediction regarding an Indian Ocean earthquake/tsunami prior to December 31, 2017 as false.
