This is the most recent in a string of quakes that have shaken the Delhi-NCR region. High-rise residents in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar fled to the streets as the tremors lasted for over a minute. The earthquake measured 6.4 on the Richter scale and caused significant damage in Nepal. According to officials, at least 128 people have been killed, and the death count is expected to rise. The tremors were also felt in Patna, Katihar, Motihari, and several other districts in Bihar along the Indo-Nepal border. Residents described the experience as sudden and alarming, with furniture and fixtures shaking. This earthquake serves as a reminder that Nepal, situated in a geologically active region, is prone to seismic activity due to the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates, which formed the Himalayas. The region is no stranger to earthquakes, and such events highlight the need for preparedness and resilience in the face of natural disasters.
