Abstract
- In the early morning of 21 July 2023, a few low to moderate magnitude earthquakes struck the city of Jaipur in Rajasthan, India. These tremors were strong enough to wake up the city residents and were felt even in other relatively distant cities such as Jaisalmer and Delhi. This study reports preliminary findings of the reconnaissance conducted in Jaipur following these earthquakes. Field observations indicate a maximum seismic intensity V ('awakening') on the MSK 1964 intensity scale (IS 1893-1, 2016), which is consistent with the seismic zone (II) in which Jaipur city is located.
