Quake Experience: I was sleeping at the time when the tremors started ( It is the month of Ramzan for muslims and usually after getting up very early in the moring around 4 am and eating food and offering prayers, muslims sleep again for sometime) and for first 10 seconds it was quite slow and i was at the 3rd floor and i quickly realised and went up to 4th floor to my parents and the frequency of tremors increased a lot and i could see the Fans and lamp Jars hitting the roof, i felt like i was in some amusement park and on some ride! We were so scared but didn't because there was no point moving down because the streets are so narrow and already there were so many people out there and God-forbid if some building collapes more casualities would be there on the streets then in the buildings....We remembered the tremors of the Gujarat earthquake, it felt like same, but it was for more time around 1 minute.....I am from Hauz rani, Khirki extn near malviya nagar and near my home i could see a newly made building got separate from the other building, actually this new building was built as if it was attached, which is very common in delhi, but now they are separate and there is quite lot of gap around 6 inches or more....If at anytime the quake epicenter is going to be Delhi or near Delhi i am afraid not even a single house would be spared and all will collapse especially conjusted areas like Hauz Rani,Khirki Village, Khirki extn, malviya nagar and many more place in central, western delhi like Pahad Ganj!

Quake Experience: we are acustomed to earthquacks as we are from North east Of India where minor tremors are felt every now and than. i calmly told my wife to go down stairs alongwith my children and move towards the nearby park.waise, the stair case is a danger zone also.
