The NCS said that the tremor was felt in southern Manipur's Bishnupur district and adjoining areas in the morning.

The quake struck at a depth of 10 km from the surface. There was no immediate report of any casualty or damage to property.

The Manipur quake occurred 24 hours after a similar earthquake measuring 3.4 on the Richter Scale was felt in northern Tripura's Dharmanagar, adjoining Assam. The shake struck at a depth of 10 km from the surface.
