An early tsunami warning system will be set up in Pakistan, local media reported on Friday.
The Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) quoted Anjum Bari, a chief meteorologist, as saying that he had sent a proposal to the government on the system.
An early warning system for floods has already been functioning in the country, said the APP report.
In 1945, an earthquake of 8.3 magnitude hit Pasni, near the current Pakistan-Indian border, which triggered a tsunami that killed some 4,000 people, said the report.
