A tremor was felt in many parts of Bangalore,particularly Kenger,Uttarahalli,Kumaraswamy Layout,ISRO Layhout, Vasanthapura, Talghattan,Jayanagar,HBLLayout and alsoBTM Layout, residents of J.P.Nagar felt it quite strongly.

It took place at about 8.45a.m..People in the locality heard a loud noise, more like an explosion, that lasted nearly 10 seconds.

Another resident of J.P.Nagar at J.P.Nagar too had a similar experience. "The sound was unbearable and I felt giddy. It took at least five minutes to return to my normal self' he said.

Some geologists, however agreed that was a tremor but of a very low intensity.
