An earthquake of magnitude 3.1 occurred on Sunday and its tremors were felt in the Delhi-NCR region. The earthquake had its epicentre nine km away from Haryana's Faridabad and at a depth of 10 km.

On Sunday October 15, Delhi-NCR experienced earthquake tremors around 4 pm. The incident has prompted authorities to await further details on the event. Around 4:08 pm, Faridabad in Haryana was shaken by an earthquake, registering a magnitude of 3.1 on the Richter Scale. This seismic activity was reported by the National Center for Seismology (NCS).

This event follows closely on the heels of similar strong tremors experienced on October 3 in and around the national capital.
