Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
Areas that lie on the boundaries of the plates are called fault zones or seismic zones. Some of these areas are Jammu and Kashmir, the Western and Central areas of the Himalayas, the Rann of Kutch, and the Northern-Eastern states. These areas are weak zones and are more prone to earthquakes.
The correct statement would be that the places near the seismic zones are more prone to earthquakes.
