Places such as Subrahmanya, Sampaje, Markanja, Peraje, and other places experienced tremors, forcing people to rush out of their houses. However, there was no major damage to property and no loss of life.
Tremors were experienced in Kodagu and Hassan too, but there was no damage to life or property.
The Met department says that there is nothing to worry. The magnitude of the tremors is yet to be measured, but they are believed to have originated in the Arabian Sea.
