There were no reports of damage or casualties. Given the quake’s shallow depth, residents in Dhaka and surrounding districts felt only a light tremor, the report said.
Bangladesh faces a high risk of major earthquakes as it lies at the junction of three tectonic plates — the Indian, Myanmar and Eurasian plates, according to The Daily Star newspaper.
Last month, a stronger 5.7-magnitude quake caused 10 deaths and significant damage, mostly in central parts of the country including Dhaka and Narsingdi.
Dhaka is considered one of the world’s 20 most earthquake-vulnerable cities with its very dense population and huge number of dilapidated buildings, many of them being in old part of the capital.
The region has a long history of powerful earthquakes, with five major tremors between 1869 and 1930 measuring above 7.0 on the Richter scale.
