The affected slope forms the footslope of a hill, thus, comprising transported materials; soil intermixed with small and large fragments of sandstone. Removal of material from the toe portion of slope for road construction destabilized the slope. Prolong

1. Timely maintenance of lined hillside draiNGe system.
2. Moderation of slope gradient may be considered.
3. Construction of strong concrete retaining wall with sufficient weep holes.

Presence of weak slope forming material, reduction of shear strength due to oversaturation, and anthropogenic activities like slope face modification during road construction are the main causes.
