Earthquake in Chickballapur again
The Hindu
It’s being attributed to elevation of water table because of recent heavy rainfall
For a second day in a row, an earthquake was reported in Chickballapur taluk on Thursday. The National Centre for Seismology said it occurred at 2.16 p.m. and had a magnitude of 3.6.
People felt the land trembling in Settigere, Beeraganhalli and surrounding villages and many ran out of buildings scared. This is just a few kilometers away from Mandikal and Bhogaparthi villages, where tremors of 3.1 and 3.3 magnitude were reported on Wednesday morning.

The High Court of Karnataka on Tuesday ordered the issue of a notice to the State government on a PIL petition, which had complained about disturbances caused to people residing in the localities around the National Public School situated in Rajajinagar 5th block due to use of loudspeakers with high volume in the school and parking of school buses in residential areas.
