The National Center for Seismology said that Nepal was the earthquake's epicenter. After the tremors were felt in the nation's capital, several users turned to social media.

Delhi is prone to earthquakes because it is located in the fourth-highest seismic zone out of the five. However, Delhi has only sometimes been the epicenter of an earthquake. It, however, experiences tremors when an earthquake occurs in high-seismic areas like central Asia or the Himalayan ranges.
