A magnitude 4.5 earthquake near Hapur, Uttar Pradesh, India, was reported only 13 minutes ago by India's National Center for Seismology (NCS), considered the main national agency that monitors seismic activity in this part of the world. The earthquake occurred at an intermediate to considerable depth of 202 km beneath the epicenter around noon on Thursday, June 9th, 2022, at 1:08 pm local time. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
According to preliminary calculations, we do not expect that the quake was felt by many people and did not cause any damage. In Kithor (pop. 25,300, 9 km away), Garhmuktesar (pop. 37,000, 14 km away), Gajraula (pop. 50,400, 22 km away), Mawana (pop. 77,000, 25 km away), Hapur (pop. 242,900, 30 km away), Meerut (pop. 1,223,200, 32 km away), Bijnor (pop. 73,600, 36 km away), Amroha (pop. 176,300, 43 km away), and New Delhi (pop. 317,800, 83 km away), the quake was probably not felt.
