Nepal earthquakes impact Gangetic plains as region's soft soil amplifies seismic energy: Experts

Seismologists have highlighted that earthquakes in Nepal have an impact on the Gangetic plains due to the amplification of seismic energy by the soft soil in the region. The recent earthquake in Nepal, with a magnitude of 6.4, caused tremors in north India, including Delhi-NCR. The National Centre for Seismology (NCS) has issued preliminary reports detailing the affected regions in India. Experts warn that consecutive earthquakes in western Nepal indicate potential for larger seismic shocks.
