New Delhi (CNN) Thangkhonao Gangte wasn't sure if he was awake when a magnitude-6.7 earthquake struck northeastern India on Monday morning.

"What is happening? Am I dreaming or is this real?" Gangte, who works for World Vision's HIV AIDS Project, asked himself.

"Then I started to hear my wife and children shouting. We all came out of the house with fear and confusion as it was still dark," he said.

At least seven people died and at least 85 were injured as a result of the quake, Manipur's police spokeswoman R. K. Tutusana said Tuesday.

The epicenter of the quake was 29 kilometers (18 miles) west of the city of Imphal, the capital of Manipur state, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
