Being from Assam, I know how scary even small earthquakes can feel! Our NE states need better disaster preparedness infrastructure. 3.4 today, but what if stronger one comes tomorrow?

NCS is doing good work with their timely updates. At least we get accurate information quickly now unlike old times when rumors would spread. 👍

As someone who experienced the Nepal earthquake, I'd suggest all NE states conduct regular earthquake drills in schools and offices. Better safe than sorry!

The depth was only 12km - that's quite shallow! No wonder people must have felt it strongly. Hope there's no damage to the beautiful hills of Manipur 🌄

While this was minor, it's a reminder that our building codes in earthquake-prone zones need strict implementation. Saw too many violations during my last trip to Imphal.
