"An earthquake with a magnitude of 4.6 on the Richter Scale hit 16 km ESE of Rohtak in Haryana at 21:08 hours today," said the National Center for Seismology (NCS). European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) states that the effects of the earthquake stretched to Delhi, 49 kilometers northwest of the epicentre and in Kheruda, two kilometers to the east. The depth of the earthquake was around 10 kilometres an the effects were largely observed. "I could feel my bed swinging," a Gurugram resident told Business Insider India. Residents of two other Indian states, Uttar Pradesh and Punjab, also reportedly felt the impact of the earthquake. <div type="twitter" handle="LastQuake" handlename="EMSC" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/669532787897147392/hQM844QV_normal.png" favoritecount="67" retweetcount="22" status="#Earthquake (#भूकंप) possibly felt 2 min ago in #Delhi #India.

The second earthquake was on May 10 that shook Delhi, Noida and adjoining areas with a intensity of around 3.5 magnitude. The lastest earthquake before today was on May 15 with a magnitude of 2.2 on the Richter scale with its epicentre in north Delhi's Pitampura. Seismic zones in India are divided into five zones based on the level of intensities sustained during past earthquakes, with Zone I being the least active and Zone V being the most active. According to this categorization, Delhi falls into the fourth zone. The National Capital Region (NCR) is no stranger to earthquakes. Tremors from earthquakes occuring as far away as the northern Himalayas have made their way down to the plains. Experts believe this is because the hard basement rocks in the Delhi-Haridwar Ridge play a integral role in transmitting the energy of an earthquake through the region. <div type="image" title="earthquake felt_edited" msid="76096740" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;css-901oao css-16my406 r-1qd0xha r-ad9z0x r-bcqeeo r-qvutc0&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Map of people reportedly feeling the effects of the earthquake &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> No loss of life or damage to property has been reported yet.

Earthquake shakes South East Asia. Epicenter in Afghanistan

<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table float_right"><div><div class="image on-image">REUTERS/Danish IsmailKashmiri girls stand on a roadside after vacating a building following an earthquake in Srinagar October 26, 2015.</div></div></div>KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - A strong earthquake in northern Afghanistan was felt across much of South Asia on Monday, shaking buildings from Kabul to Delhi and cutting power and communications in some areas.Pakistani officials said at least four people were dead in the northeast part of the country, according to Reuters.The United States Geological Service put the magnitude of the earthquake at 7.7 and said its epicenter was in the far northern province of Badakhshan, which borders Tajikistan and China. USGS said it was 213 kilometers (132.3 miles) deep and 73 kilometers (45 miles) south of the Badakhshan capital, Fayzabad."There are reports of casualties and destruction" in some remote districts of Badakhshan, said the provincial director of the national disaster management authority, Abdullah Humayoon Dehqan.Power was cut across much of the Afghan capital, where tremors were felt for around 45 seconds. Houses shook, walls cracked and cars rolled in the street. Officials in the capital could not be immediately reached as telephones appeared to be cut across the country.In Pakistan, Zahid Rafiq, an official with the meteorological department, said the quake was felt across the country. In Islamabad, buildings shook and people poured into the streets in a panic, with many reciting verses from the Quran."I was praying when the massive earthquake rattled my home. I came out in a panic," said Munir Anwar, a resident of Liaquat Pur in the eastern Punjab province.The quake was also felt in the Indian capital New Delhi, though no damage was immediately reported. Office buildings swayed and workers who had just returned from lunch ran out of buildings and gathered in the street or in parking lots.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><a href="http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us10003re5#general_map">Via USGS</a></div></div></div> <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/most-extravagant-vacations-in-world-2015-9">The most expensive and extravagant vacations in the world</a></h3> <div> <div> <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="tvMzRndzpNrgBqxHb0FavvEnwVT1v50q" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div> </div> </div> </div>

The BJP veteran reportedly suffered a fatal heart attack at the age of 67. Born on Valentine's Day in 1953, she earned bachelor's degree with majors in Political Science and Sanskrit from the Punjab University. Her father Hardev Sharma was a long-time member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the Hindu nationalist organisation and the ideological parent of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Advocate by profession, Swaraj remained in the saffron fold all her life. Until a few months before her demise, she was the country's Minister of External Affairs-- one of two women to hold that office till date -- where her active involvement and quick responses on social media not only helped many in distress but also earned her the tag of <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/indias-foreign-minister-is-cast-as-supermom--to-125-billion-compatriots/2016/08/14/ff9889f9-96aa-4ddc-b1b0-42f8f79fe20f_story.html" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">India's 'supermom'</a>.

 She holds many records like being the youngest cabinet minister at the age of 25, the first female spokesperson for a national political party, as well as the Spanish government's <a href="https://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ani/swaraj-accepts-spain-s-top-civic-award-during-visit-119021900938_1.html" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">Grand Cross of Order of Civil Merit</a> in recognition of India's support in evacuating its citizens from Nepal after the 2015 earthquake. A key character in history By the 1970s, the young Swaraj was a firebrand youth politician rallying as part of the revolutionary movement led by the Gandhian stalwart Jayprakash Narayan against the Emergency imposed by the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. She became a member of the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of Indian Parliament, in 1990 and the first lady to be Delhi's Chief Minister in 1998-- the stint, however, lasted only 3 months. She had the trust of former Prime Minister, the late Atal Behari Vajpayee, and held key portfolios including information and broadcasting, telecommunications as well as health and family welfare. Under Narendra Modi's leadership, she held the foreign ministry until 2019 when she decided to retire from contesting elections.

 Taking a Gandhi head on Swaraj never shied away from challenges whether it was outside her party or within. She famously took on the mighty <a href="https://www.theweek.in/news/india/2019/04/12/The-Nehru-Gandhi-safe-seats-When-Sonia-Sushma-crossed-swords-in-Ballari.html" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">Sonia Gandhi head on in Bellary</a>, considered to be a 'safe seat'' for the Gandhi family, in 1999. Swaraj lost the election but that was the beginning of a fierce rivalry between the two ladies, one that left an indelible story in Indian politics. Swaraj in the image of an 'ideal Indian woman' took the fight to Sonia Gandhi calling her the 'foreigner' triggering a debate that ended with Gandhi choosing not to become the Prime Minister despite having won the election. Swaraj had lost the election but her rhetoric had won.

She stood with the old guards of the BJP in stalling Modi's candidature for the post of the Prime Minister.

 However, Modi and his long-term aide, the former spy Ajit Doval, drove the country's foreign policy, Swaraj deftly redefined her role to stay relevant, and more prominent, in people's minds. The Other Modi What made matters worse for Swaraj were her and her family's <a href="https://www.indiatoday.in/mail-today/story/sushma-swaraj-amit-shah-lalit-modi-external-affairs-minister-bjp-257521-2015-06-15" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">ties with Lalit Modi</a>, the controversial businessman who built the billion dollar Indian Premier League and was later indicted for money laundering, embezzlement, and breaking rules while living a lavish lifestyle. Swaraj, whose daughter was Lalit Modi's legal counsel, was accused of helping him flee the country in 2014. Eventually, <a href="https://www.thecitizen.in/index.php/en/NewsDetail/index/1/4024/The-Reason-Why-PM-Modi-and-the-RSS-Decided-to-Support-Sushma-Swaraj" data-type="tilCustomLink" target="_blank">there was peace between the two camps</a> within the BJP and Swaraj came out of the controversy with minimal scars. She spent the remaining years in her office as foreign minister connecting with people via Twitter. Her affectionate and sensitive responses to Indians in distress in other countries, during times of hostility or a natural disaster, earned her the love and likes from millions of people.

Born and brought up in Dehradun, 24-year-old <keyword id="3346100" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Deepak-Ramola">Deepak Ramola</keyword> is a man of many talents. 
 
He is a lyricist and has written songs for <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=bollywood&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Bollywood</a> films such as <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=wazir&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Wazir </a>and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=manjhi&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Manjhi</a>. He’s even acted in a few movies and a TV serial besides being a screenplay writer, script analyst and a spoken word poet. 
 But, the one role that is closest to his heart is that of a ‘<keyword id="3346102" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Life-skill-educator">Life Skill Educator</keyword>.’ 
 
It all started falling in place in 2009 when Deepak was barely 17 years old. He founded <a href="http://projectfuel.in/">Project FUEL</a>, through which he began collecting life-lessons of various people and then presenting them in different interactive mediums for the world to see. 
 
The lessons would also be converted into different activities and he would visit different institutions and conduct workshops. All of his workshops ended with collecting life-lessons from the attendees. At the moment, Deepak has not only conducted workshops all across India, but also in <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=nepal&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Nepal </a>and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=afghanistan&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Afghanistan</a>. 
 
Deepak strongly believes that the power of life-lessons transcends geographical boundaries and personal familiarities. “People who are miles away from each other and have never met, can relate with each other and help each other to move on in life, just through life lessons”, he adds. 
 
 
 
He remembers receiving a life lesson from a Delhi woman who told him, “If your face can surprise you in the mirror every morning, you are still having a good life.” This very life-lesson travelled to Punjab helped a woman who had not smiled for years after being told she looked ugly while smiling- rediscover the beauty of the smile on her face while looking at it in a small piece of mirror during an activity that Deepak was conducting based on this very life lesson. 
 
Having collected more than 50,000 life lessons and benefitting over 54,000 people of varying age groups and sections of the society, Deepak is attempting to do something even bigger this year. 
 
 
 As part of <keyword id="3346101" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Project-FUEL">Project FUEL</keyword>’s once a year exclusive program, ‘The <keyword id="3346103" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Masterpiece-tour">Masterpiece Tour</keyword>,’ he intends to collect life-lessons from people affected by the recent migration that was primarily driven by the conflict in <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=syria&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Syria</a>. He wishes to reach out to refugees as well as citizens of countries that have provided asylum to them, document learnings that have come from this experience and share them with the rest of the world. 
 
 
 
Business Insider sat down with this incredible 24-year-old with a mission to learn more about him and the 2016 edition of his Masterpiece Tour. 
 
 
1. How did the idea of collecting life-lessons from refugees come about? 
 
In our long drawn endeavor of documenting and distributing life lessons through Project FUEL we note a distinct commonality- that most life lessons come out of hard knocks or experiences of adversity. In the process of helping people open up and reflect on testing times in their life, we have built and polished a beautiful approach- one that makes people feel safe and powerful when sharing and addressing their vulnerabilities 
 
 
 
And, hence, from 2014, every year I decided on a place that can benefit most from our methodology. In the first year of the Masterpiece Tour we taught more than 3500 children in 6 different cities of Punjab. In 2015, we went to <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=nepal+earthquake&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Nepal post the earthquake </a>and served more than 800 Nepalese people. So, when time came to decide the location for the third edition of the tour, I decided to take life lessons from people affected by the recent migrant crisis- both refugees and citizens of countries that have provided asylum to them 
 
Simply because, displacement is not just an outcome of a major circumstantial adversity in modern times; it is a human emotion today. Almost every person in today’s world has undergone the experience of leaving one’s home to adapt in an unknown setting, in some capacity or other. 
 
The refugee situation in Syria forced nearly 4 million people to leave their homes and homeland, to find shelter in Europe is a magnified view of the homelessness we all fear. It’s an extreme scenario that highlights what human beings can go through due to multiple reasons and overcome it despite of having been challenged in every step of the way. 
 
Ever since, I saw the body of a small boy washed up on the Turkish shore flashing in the media; I knew I had to make this tour happen. Otherwise, thousands of people will be gone too soon without having their experiences shared or lessons passed on for the world to acknowledge the legacy of their lives. 
 
2. What do you intend to achieve from this tour? 
 
These stories will increase relatability to the problems and put people at the heart of the event. Most importantly, it will facilitate the understanding of the conflict from a human point of view. While it's nearly impossible to relate to "four million refugees", it is possible to understand the life of one. Most importantly, I want to reach out and convey that we do care. 
 
 
 
3. How long will the tour last? 
 
In Masterpiece Tour 2016, we plan to visit Sweden, Netherlands, Germany, France and Hungary. We will be on the tour for 100 days, 20 days per country. Through an exchange of life lessons, we will not only document learnings that arise out of this conflict but to share it with the rest of the world in an un-biased, non-judgmental and creative way. All the refugee organizations in these countries we have spoken to believe that this project can help the refugees become part of the new societies, with dignity and respect. 
 
4. Do you have a specific strategy in mind on how to interact with the refugees? 
 
I have been prepping, specifically, for this tour for more than 6 months now and have a blueprint of what questions to ask and how to facilitate a space for an open conversation. We have some life skills activities planned based on life lessons that we will be overlaying with theirs. But they have been through such an emotional, mental, physical and psychological turmoil, I want to build a relationship, a connection to make them feel comfortable enough to be vulnerable. That is why the tour in each country is 20 days long so that we devote considerable amount of time to the work and not just fly through it. 
 
5. What is the amount you’re looking to raise to make this tour a reality? 
 
We require 30 lakhs to execute this tour successfully that includes stay, travel, visa, equipment cost, payouts, salaries of translators, research cost, everything for a four member team travelling for 100 days in five countries. 
 
6. What happens incase you’re unable to raise the necessary funds? 
We are currently crowdfunding to make this tour happen. If we don’t meet our goal of raising 30 lakhs in next 30 days we will not be able to execute the tour. We will not be able to reach out thousands of refugees and provide for them an opportunity to voice and share their learnings.
