Recently, there was an earthquake rumour in Chandigarh. It spread like fire. Well, nobody was to blame! As Chandigarh and Delhi lie in Zone iv, these regions are vulnerable to earthquakes. City residents have experienced quite a few of them and had enough reason to panic. I was just reading a news release issued by University of California. What a discovery, microbes, tiny creatures which you can't even see with your naked eyes can help steady buildings against earthquakes!
