Animated movie made to spread precautionary quake awareness

In the wake of the earthquake that struck and caused heavy damages in Nepal, an Indian has made an animated movie to spread awareness about the precautionary measures to be taken when tremors strike.

The video shows do's and don'ts when earthquakes strike.

"This is a tribute to Nepal. I have made an awareness video showing how earthquake occurs and people to know about it and what precautions to be taken when it occurs," said Aman Rehman, maker of the movie.

Rehman said natural disasters are unavoidable but many lives can be saved if they take precautionary measures.

"This is very simple video which can be understood even by a child, like if earthquake occurs then one can hide under a table or take other precautions looking at the video," he added.

Rehman has dedicated the animation movie to the people of Nepal and he plans to upload it on Youtube.

The earthquake has shaken the people across India.

Moved by the misery of the people of Nepal, students and teachers took out a march in India's eastern Siliguri town to collect funds and relief materials.

At least, 6,655 people have died and more than 14,000 people injured in a massive earthquake, measuring 7.9 on the Richter scale, which struck Nepal last week.
