The death toll due to the massive earthquake that struck Nepal yesterday has crossed 1,800.

People sang songs and spent their night outside their homes due to fear of aftershock.

The Indian Government had sent four aircrafts with National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) teams to oversee rescue and relief operations and also set up a 24-hour control room for queries regarding the tragedy.

The impact of the earthquake was felt in almost all northern states in India particularly in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Sikkim and West Bengal.
