1.┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á Construction of strong reinforced retaining wall/gabion wall at the toe of the slide founded on firm substratum. 2.┬á┬á┬á┬á┬á Construction of lined hillside drainage.
1. Weak slope forming material. 2. Cutting of slope for road construction. 3. Incessant rainfall led to over-saturation of slope forming material results in reduction of shear strength due to rise in local pore water pressure.
