Tremors were felt across Delhi-NCR in March
Similar tremors were felt across Delhi-NCR in March when a powerful earthquake measuring 7.7 on the Richter scale struck Myanmar. The quake that struck the Southeast Asian nation on March 28 killed some 3,800 people and injured over 5,000, according to UN estimates. The World Bank estimates overall damages at nearly $11 billion, and full reconstruction is projected to cost two to three times more.
