delhiUpdated: Jun 08, 2020 16:53 ISTA 2.1 magnitude earthquake, too mild to be felt by most people, occurred near Delhi on Monday afternoon, according to the National Center for Seismology. This is the sixth earthquake to have its epicentre around Gurugram-Rohtak over the last 10 days. The 2.1 magnitude earthquake on Monday occurred at a depth of 18 km, also one reason why it wasn’t felt by most people. There are several faults in and around Delhi: Mathura fault, Moradabad fault, Delhi-Haridwar ridge, Delhi-Sargodha fault, Mahendergarh and Dehradun fault. The NCS says most of the small earthquakes recorded around Delhi since April this year were along lineaments.
