1. Slope benching was already implemented. However, the slope failed due to presence of major drainage on the slope. Therefore, systematic channeling of drainages and proper disposal of surface water runoff is recommended. 2. Construction of retaining wa
1. Slope forming material is predominantly composed of moderately weathered and fractured/ fragmented rock mass intermixed with in-situ soil. 2. Dissection of hillslope by a major drainage line. 3. Oversaturation of slope material and loss of cohesion du
