Pasni town , like the rest of Makran Coast , is affected by a seismic fault line ( Makran Accretionary Front ) caused by the northward movement ( 40 – 50 mm/year ) of the Arabian Plate against the Eurasian Plate . Tectonic activity emanating from this subduction zone in the Arabian Sea causes occasional , low intensity quakes . On 28 Nov 1945 , a tsunami , triggered by the 1945 Balochistan earthquake , completely destroyed Pasni town
