A magnitude 4.9 earthquake strikes Uttarakhand’s Chamoli, and tremors are felt across Delhi-NCR on Tuesday night. People in Delhi and adjoining areas report shaking and share accounts on social media.
Multiple outlets cite the National Centre for Seismology, saying the quake’s epicentre is in Chamoli and that it occurs at a depth of about 13 km. One report gives a slightly different magnitude figure (4.4) but the rest of the coverage broadly agrees on the location and that the shaking is felt in the national capital region.
Outlets mainly differ in the magnitude number and whether they present the news as live updates, but they converge on the key details: the Uttarakhand epicentre, the timing late Tuesday night, and the widespread perception of tremors in Delhi and nearby areas.
