Following the earthquakes that occurred last year, the NCS has started a geophysical survey in Delhi-NCR. Will analyze satellite photos and geological field probes to find out the shortcomings of the Earth’s surface. Both these surveys are expected to be completed by 31 March. 11 temporary additional stations have been deployed to ascertain the exact sources of earthquake and their tremors.
An official of the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) said that people would be able to use emergency number 112 to seek help during any natural disaster in the next two years.
