Answer:
A massive earthquake struck Gujarat on January 26, 2001, India’s fifty-first republic day. The border district of Kachchh, which bore the brunt of the fury, was almost completely destroyed, with the urban areas of Bhuj (the district headquarters), Anjar, Bhachau and Rapar suffering the maximum devastation.
The quake, said to be the second strongest in the last fifty years in any part of India, measured 6.9 on the Richter scale [Indian Meteorological Department (IMD)’s recordings]. The entire northern Indian belt experienced tremors while “vibrations” were felt even as far south as Chennai. Mild tremors were also felt in Kolkata, Shillong, Agartala and Nepal.
The epicenter of the earthquake of January 26 is .believed to have fallen on the Alia Bund fault (the scarp that emerged after the 1819 Kachchh quake) within the Indian plate. (When an earthquake occurs along a fault line within the plate, it is called an intra-plate earthquake. The majority of the earthquakes occur along plate boundaries and not on intra-plate faults.)
