Tectonic Location of Pakistan

Pakistan is split along the boundary where Indian plate slides along the Eurasian Plate towards north along the fault zone. This fault zone is a transpressional strike slip fault called Chaman Transform Fault Zone. It starts from the south at the tripple juction of Indian, Arabian and Eurasian Plate. Towards north it crosses the Herat transform fault and meets the Pamir thrust System.  It splits the southwest part (Baluchistan area) of Pakistan. Therefore the major part of the Baluchistan Province lies on the Eurasian Plate. 

In the North some of the area of Pakistan like Hunza lies on the Karakoram Microplate, which is now considered as a part of Eurasian Plate. Some of the area of Pakistan like Kohistan, Kalam, Gilgit and Chilas lies on the Kohistan Island Arc, which is separated from the Indian Plate through the Main Mantle Thrust. The main portion of Pakistan like Punjab, Sindh and Khyber Pakhtukhwa lies on the Indian Plate.
