N.E region of India is considered as the sixth earthquake prone belt in the world. An earth quake measuring 6.7 on the Richter scale, the epicenter is Manipur.There are reports of damages. Details are yet to come.
Earth quakes in Indian subcontinent are occurring due to the movement of Indian subcontinent plates. The Himalayan region is more prone to earthquakes.
Entire NE region is prone to earthquakes. An these Natural disasters have become regular feature. Tremors were also felt in Delhi and Kashmir. According to latest news 6 people died. There is a chance of an increase in death toll.
In last few months earth quakes occurred many times, and now it become the habit of the people living in this region that earth quake can occur at any time and there is nothing new for them. Pakistan, Afganistan, Hindukush region, Himalay region, Nepal and now in Manipur region earth quakes have more frequent than earlier.
People learn to live even in the most hazardous conditions. When my place was affected by Hudhud 2years ago, we, the people of Vizag did not leave the place, But we learned to live. Even during a heavy rainfall, we recapitulate the lessons earned in such Natural calamities. There is no option.
It is really very fearful. No one knows what will happen the next minute and if something like earthquake takes place then there is no time to take any preventive measure and devastation takes place. Feeling extremely bad for the North East people.
I don't think its man made disaster. As far as I know Earthquakes happen when two blocks of the earth suddenly slip past one another . The surface where they slip is called Fault or fault plane. The only fault I see is if a region is located in an Earthquake prone region, Earth quakes happen.

To some extent Human being is also responsible for earth quakes. We are extracting oil, mineral and many things from earth which creates vacuum, and space is created in layers of earth resulting in the movement of plates.
