Hill slope covered with thick Insitu soil (>3m) got supersaturated during heavy rainfall increased pore pressure which resulted in soil slump. The vertical depth of slump is almost 1.5 to 2m and large volume of soil accumulated at the zone of accumulatio

Fresh scar, tilted and fallen trees indicates the incidence occurred recently.Possibility of failure of instable material found along the flanks as well as over the crown.

Umberde-Shilimb-Rajiwadi road section
Proper drainage arrangements for keeping the slope unsaturated.
Modification of the slope by benching. Removal of loose and detached material from crown as well as from flanks of landslide.
Cleaning and lining the hill side drains.
The major geological cause for the incidence is the presence of thick lateritic soil along natural steep slope.
