Weeks after a massive earthquake that shattered Nepal into pieces, this landlocked country was again rattled by a powerful tremor with magnitude of 7.4 today at 12:35 pm near Zham, 22 km away from China and Nepal border.

Slight effects of the quake were also observed in India.

Other areas in North and East India including West Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand and Assam felt the impact of the earthquake as well.

In the national capital, Delhi Metro was brought to a halt as per the standard operating procedure.

The tremors came just weeks after a massive 7.9 earthquake shook Nepal and claimed life of more than 7,000 people.
