Proper drainage arrangements for keeping the slope unsaturated. 
Removal of loose and detached material from crown as well as from flanks of landslide.
Complete clearance of the hill side drain
Highly weathered basalt overlying the moderately weathered basalt and overburden on steeply dipping hill slope. Road ward dipping contact/interface between two weathered basalt units act as lubricated surface at the time of heavy rainfall. In addition, s
