Regarding recent earthquakes, I would like to clarify a few points

Foreshocks

These earthquakes may not be Foreshocks. J&K hasn’t much history of Foreshocks. Usually, what we witness here is Aftershocks. So, no bigger earthquake is expected, given the history.

Recurrence

It is not for the first time that frequent earthquakes have happened here. Some earthquake events in the past were followed by hundreds, if not thousands, of aftershocks.

Location

All these earthquakes were recorded near the same area. So, these are likely aftershocks of the first earthquake that happened.

More Earthquakes?

It is likely the intensity and frequency of these earthquakes will decrease in the coming days.
