Earthquake of magnitude 5 is Ten times more stronger than that of magnitude 4 & of magnitude 6 is hundred times more stronger than that of 4 as this is on Richter scale which is Logrithmic scale.As in recent past earthquakes of magnitude 6 or more have commanly occured in various part of world causing widespread destruction,Thank God this was only 4.3 on Richter scale.Govt should take immediate steps & frame adequate policies to prevent earthquakes of bigger magnitudes in future.
