The quake’s epicentre was at a depth of 64 kilometers, according to the NCS. This depth likely mitigated surface damage.
While initial reports suggest no major structural damage or casualties, authorities are conducting assessments across affected regions.
The NCS is continuing to monitor seismic activity and will release further updates as they become available. Citizens are urged to remain vigilant and follow official advisories.
This incident underscores the importance of robust building codes and disaster preparedness in seismically active zones across India. The need for public awareness campaigns and regular drills becomes even more critical in light of this event.
