Residents in the Indian capital felt a mild earthquake on Wednesday, a day after New Delhi was shaken by a 6.7 magnitude quake centered in the Hindu Kush mountains in Afghanistan.

The Meteorological Department confirmed a quake in northern India, but did not have details such as the magnitude immediately available. There were no initial signs of damage or injuries.

Scores of houses were damaged in Afghanistan by Tuesday's early morning earthquake, the biggest since the devastating October 8 South Asia quake that killed almost 75,000.
