More than a year after the killer tsunami hit southern India, the country still does not have a plan in place to study the seafloor rupture that triggered the calamity. Not only has India not initiated any research programme to probe the 1,300-kilometre rupture zone, two-thirds of which falls in its territorial waters, but it has cold-shouldered even the proposals by scientific teams from other countries. A comprehensive study of the affected subduction zone (where tectonic plates collide) is vital to model the earthquake as well as gauge the likelihood of more tsunamis in the area.
