The failed slope exposes well bedded sandstone with multiple discontinuity planes, failure in the form of translational failure along the disjointed discontinuity plane is observed. The rock slide occurred in July 2015, got reactivated on 22/05/2016 duri

Area is relatively safer in terms of landslide occurrences, thus adopting suitable remedial measures will address in mitigating the problem. Initiated during Jul-15, Reactivated on 22/05/2016

1. Removal of debris from the slope.
2. Toe support for the day-lighted bedrock through construction of strong concrete retaining walls with provision of drain pipes. 
3. Shot-creting may also be considered.
4. Construction of lined hill side drain.
• Development of local pore pressure due to incessant rainfall in highly jointed rock along the discontinuity plane.
• Extensive slope cut for construction of road, exposing the discontinuity plane in day-lighted condition which failed along the weak
