TOI explains: Why Delhi and parts of northern India face earthquakes so often
Monday, 17 February 2025 An earthquake of 6.0 magnitude with a shallow depth of 5 km jolted Delhi-NCR and parts of northern India early Monday morning. Delhi's vulnerability to seismic activity is due to its geological location near the Indian and Eurasian Plates collision zone and local fault systems. Retrofitting older buildings and improving preparedness are essential to mitigate future damage.

Delhi has enforced a tough new vehicle scrapping policy to fight rising pollution. Diesel vehicles over 10 years and petrol vehicles over 15 years will no longer be allowed to refuel, with mandatory scrapping in effect. The move, aimed at reducing toxic air levels, has sparked mixed reactions across the city. What do Delhi residents think? Is this a necessary climate step or an inconvenience?

India has refused to endorse the SCO's strong condemnation of Israel’s military strikes on Iran, signalling a diplomatic divergence within the Eurasian bloc. While China, Russia, and others denounced Israel’s actions, New Delhi maintained a neutral stance—underscoring its strategic balancing act between Iran and Israel. As India deepens its defence ties with Israel and economic interests with Iran, experts say New Delhi is trying to avoid choosing sides amid Trump’s sanctions, escalating tensions, and looming global instability.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has accused Quad nations — the US, Japan, and Australia — of dragging India into a de facto military alliance, despite Delhi’s stated focus on economic ties. Speaking at a Eurasian security forum, Lavrov warned of coordinated naval drills aimed at militarizing Quad beyond its original scope. He also pushed to revive the dormant Russia-India-China (RIC) trilateral platform, asserting that Western powers are deliberately stoking Indo-China tensions by reframing the region as "Indo-Pacific" with anti-China goals. His remarks signal Moscow’s shifting strategic focus in Asia.
