Earthquake Tremors Felt Across Delhi-NCR and Northern India
Strong earthquake tremors were felt across Delhi-NCR and several parts of Northern India, triggering panic among residents. The sudden seismic activity caused people to rush out of buildings, with reports of mild structural damage in some areas.
Widespread Tremors Spark Panic
The tremors were experienced in Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, and several neighboring states, prompting immediate reactions. “People were seen evacuating residential and office buildings as the tremors persisted for several seconds,” according to eyewitness accounts. Many took to social media to share their experiences, with reports of furniture shaking and ceiling fans swaying.
Authorities Monitor the Situation
Following the tremors, authorities began assessing the impact. “We are closely monitoring the situation and will provide updates as necessary,” officials stated. While no major damage or casualties have been reported so far, emergency response teams have been put on alert.
The earthquake’s epicenter and magnitude are yet to be officially confirmed, but initial estimates suggest a significant seismic event affecting a broad region. In the past, similar tremors in Northern India have been linked to seismic activity along the Himalayan belt, a known earthquake-prone zone.
Precautions and Safety Measures
Experts have advised people to remain cautious and prepared for potential aftershocks. Residents have been urged to follow earthquake safety protocols, such as staying away from glass windows, taking shelter under sturdy furniture, and keeping emergency kits ready.
With increased seismic activity in the region, authorities continue to stress the importance of preparedness and response measures. Further updates on the situation are awaited as officials conduct detailed assessments.
