Removal of toe support under Extensive Slope Cutting for road construction and saturation of slope mass by monsoonal rainfall initiated the process of sliding and lead to failure. Large amount of failed material signifies the thickness of overburden is m

Proper cleaning of the hill side drain. Construction of suitably designed retaining wall with weep holes. 
Proper drainage alignment to avoid/lessen the direct percolation of wat
Reduction of strength on super saturation during rains resulted in slope failure. Removal of toe support under Extensive Slope Cutting for road construction enhances the instability of slope.
