An earthquake hit the national capital Delhi, today, prompting people to come out of their homes. The epicentre of the earthquake was not immediately known. Several low-intensity earthquakes have hit the national capital since April.
Delhi falls in the fourth zone out of five seismic zones.
According to the Delhi Disaster Management Authority, seismicity around Delhi appears to be associated with a major geological structure known as the Delhi-Hardwar Ridge.
More details are awaited.
