I was sitting alone in my office, Sanjay Place Agra,  before computer. I felt a little head ache. I felt that this might be because of continuous sitting before computer. Meanwhile I heard shouts of men running downstairs.  This was Earth Quake. every one was running.  Today's quake was more fierce than earlier. .

Thank god the epicentre was again in Nepal. The entire N India is part of quake belt

Yes sir. It's intensity is recorded on the Richter scale as 7.8. Already it was reported that 10 people died in Bihar. In Khatmandu, 4 people died. Many buildings collapsed. Reports are gradually pouring in. The extent of damage is not yet known fully. A great human tragedy.

Yeah we were just watching the news an hour ago. I feel really sorry for the people in Nepal who have once again become affected by the earthquake. It must be real nightmare for those who experienced it.

It looks as if the earth quake is following Nepal to wipe it completely. The greatest tragedy in the recent times.

Yup.. This time also earth quake measurement was big one. Hope this time we will not see that much damage as last one.

The present quake is of higher intensity. The damage to the lives and properties are likely to be more than the previous one. Anyhow it's too early to guess the damages

Yup... its still too early to guess the damage. As last time first count of died people in Nepal was too low, but in the end it was over eight thousand. 

The damages this time are more in UP and Bihar after Nepal. Though there are no damages, the tremors were felt in AP also. Fortunately AP and most of the Southern states do not fall in the earth quake prone Zone.

Even I felt it in Noida (office). I think it would have taken lots of life as intensity of earthquake this time also was high. I am worried for people in Nepal.

Noida is prone to earth quake as all the regions around Delhi are prone to earth quake along with other regions of North India. Experts say, the loss of men and material are likely to be more. Till now there were 18 deaths till now even in India.

No doubt in that in next 2-3 days death count will be much more. It's tough to survive such natural calamities.

 

The control of natural calamities by humans is not possible. They are imminent.

Yup.. it is one of thing which is out of control for humans. They just can pray to god.

More than prayer awareness about earth quakes will help in reducing the loss of men and material. Total control of the nature is not in the hands of the humans.

Yes one should be aware how to save their lives from earthquake as we can't stop them.

Surprisingly this times quake is continuing and returns show how difficult life it would have been, as per news reports apart from Nepal the second highest casualty is at Bihar.x

Yes, in India too there were deaths more in Bihar. The total deaths were 18until now.

In Bhubaneswar, the oldest government building (9 stairs) saw the cracks and roof of one house near VSS nagar of Bhubaneswar nearer to Vanivihar, collapses. 

In AP too the tremors were felt in busy areas of Vizag,and Vijayawada.

Experts says for one month after shocks would be continuing. in the latest earthquake to Nepal the highway from Nepal to China is broken.
