BAITEDI, June 30: The far western hilly districts have been facing continuous jolts of earthquake since Wednesday. So far, the Seismological Center in Surkhet has recorded 21 jolts of quake as of this afternoon.
An earthquake measuring 3.4 in the Richter scale was recorded at 4:32 Thursday morning following by another of 3.8 Richter scale at 7:00 am, 2.8 Richter scale at 12.07 pm and two more of smaller scales. On Wednesday alone, 16 jolts were recorded.
