Overview
- The Institute of Seismological Research recorded a 3.1‑magnitude tremor at 12:41 p.m. with an epicentre about 12 km north‑northeast of Bhachau.
- An earlier 2.6‑magnitude tremor was logged at 6:41 a.m. roughly 24 km east‑southeast of Dholavira, the ISR said.
- The Kutch district disaster management office said there were no casualties or reports of property damage from either event.
- Kutch experiences frequent low‑intensity seismic activity due to its location in a very high seismic risk zone.
- The region’s risk profile is framed by the devastating 2001 Kutch earthquake, which killed around 13,800 people and injured about 167,000.
