Toe removal of the natural slope during construction of the road resulted in loss of cohesion and failure of overburden material during heavy rainfall under the effect of gravity.
Rahman, M. A. and Kaur, J., (2020) Macroscale (1:50,000) Landslide Susceptibility Mapping (LSM) in parts of Toposheet nos. 47F/08 and 47F/12in parts of Raigad, Pune,Satara and Ratnagiri districts, Maharashtra.
Fresh scar indicates the incidence was occurred recently and has a possibility of further failure due to remaining unstable material.

Proper drainage arrangements for keeping the slope unsaturated. 
Modification of the slope by benching. Removal of loose and detached material from crown as well as from flanks of landslide.
Proper cleaning of hill side drain
Highly weathered basalt with moderately weathered basalt lying over steeply dipping hill slope. Heavy rainfall the main triggering factor reduces the strength of overlying material and resulted in slope failure. In addition, slope cutting enhances the de
