Tremors were felt at multiple locations in Karnataka early on Tuesday, triggering panic among the people. According to the details, the tremors were felt in Kodagu, Dakshina Kannada districts of the state, at nearly 7.45 am today.
Many ran out of their houses in panic as the tremors lasted for about three to seven seconds.
This is the third time they were experiencing tremors in the last three days. The areas surrounding Sullia experienced the tremors for the second time.
The people of Sullia claimed to hear a huge sound after which the vessels, furniture materials and roofing top sheets started shaking.
