A 6.4 magnitude earthquake strikes Nepal, causing vibrations in the Delhi-NCR area.



On Friday night, a magnitude 6.4 earthquake struck Nepal, causing severe vibrations in northern India, particularly the Delhi-NCR area, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh. The earthquake struck at 11:32 p.m. at a depth of 10 kilometers, according to the National Centre for Seismology (NCS).

According to authorities at Nepal's National Earthquake Measurement Centre, the epicentre of the earthquake occurred in the Lamidanda region of the Jajarkot district.




The earthquake on Friday was the latest in a string of tremors detected in the Delhi-NCR region.

A magnitude 6.1 earthquake rocked Nepal just a few days ago, on October 22. The epicentre of the earthquake occurred in Dhading, and the vibrations were felt across the Delhi-NCR region.


Tremors from a 3.1 magnitude earthquake that rocked Haryana were also felt in the Delhi-NCR region on October 15.

Prior to that, on October 3, severe tremors were reported in numerous regions of northern India, including Delhi and its surrounding territories, following a series of earthquakes that rattled Nepal in a matter of hours. The most powerful registered 6.2 on the Richter scale.

According to Ajay Paul, a seismologist who previously worked at the Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology, the epicenter of the earthquake on Friday happened in Nepal near the location of the October 3 quakes. He recognized the region as Nepal's central belt, which has "active energy releasing sectors."


He went on to say that people should stay attentive and prepared.

Virat Kohli will resume leading Test teams.

Virat Kohli will resume leading Test teams. On social media, there is an increasing call for the Indian cricket team's Test captain to be replaced. Rohit Sharma should be replaced, according to fans, by either Virat Kohli or Ravichandran Ashwin. However, given the ageing Indian team, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) selectors have a difficult task in selecting a new skipper. With the exception of Shubman Gill, all six of the top players are over 34 years old, making the transition all the more critical. After India's dismal loss to Australia in the World Test Championship (WTC) final, Rohit Sharma's leadership has come under fire.

The World Test Championship's upcoming cycle means that the selectors may have a difficult time finding a suitable successor. Given the limited choices available and the approaching ODI World Cup in 2023, it is unlikely that Rohit will be replaced anytim...
