Delhi Earthquake: Latest update

Meanwhile, the Delhi Disaster Management Authority has planned to organise a mock drill on earthquake diaster across all districts in the national capital on Friday. The mock drill comes days after the national capital and its adjoining areas felt tremors for two days in a row. A 2.7 magnitude earthquake struck the national capital on Wednesday. The quake occurred at 4:42 pm. The epicentre was in west Delhi and the depth was five kilometres, it said.
