Today marks 21 years since the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami, triggered by a massive 9.1-magnitude undersea earthquake along the Indian–Burma plate boundary. The quake lasted nearly 10 minutes, unleashing waves that rose up to 30 metres and impacted 14 countries. Along India’s 4,500-km coastline, Tamil Nadu bore the heaviest toll — 7,993 lives lost and over 1.23 lakh homes destroyed. While buildings have been rebuilt and boats repaired, the grief remains unhealed. #IndianOceanTsunami #Tsunami
