An Mw 6.9 earthquake struck near the Nepal-Sikkim border on September 18, 2011, at 18:10 local time. The earthquake triggered a large number of landslides and caused significant damage to buildings and infrastructure. Sikkim was the most affected state of India, followed by West Bengal and Bihar. Neighbouring countries of Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet (China) and Bangladesh sustained damage and losses to varying extent (Figure 1a). The maximum shaking intensity is estimated to be around VI+ on the MSK scale. The earthquake was followed by a series of aftershocks, two of which were M4.5 and M5.0 and hit within 75 minutes of the main shock.
