Earthquake tremors measuring 4.6 magnitude were felt in the Jalgaon district of Maharashtra on Saturday, November 14, 2026. The tremors occurred around 9:16 a.m. and were particularly noticeable in the Satpuda region, including the talukas of Bhusawal, Chopda, Raver, and Yawal. Officials stated that the epicenter of the quake was located in the Khargone district of Madhya Pradesh.

District Collector Rohan Ghuge confirmed that no loss of life or damage to property has been reported in Jalgaon. He urged residents to remain calm and avoid believing or spreading rumors.

There were initial concerns regarding the seismic risks to three major dams located in the region—Girna, Waghur, and Hatnur. However, Jalgaon district officials have clarified that no issues occurred. This event follows previous seismic activity in the state, where Palghar experienced two 3.4 magnitude tremors within an hour back in August.
