The NCS data and Mizoram disaster management officials said that the quake struck at a depth of 130 km at eastern Mizoram’s Champhai district.

There was no report of loss of life or damage to property in any of the quake hit areas.

Seismologists consider the northeastern Indian region as the sixth most earthquake-prone belt in the world.
