The slide is a shallow translational debris slide which has been triggered due to slope cut for road construction coupled with rainfall during monsoon.The affected slope is predominantly composed of thick column of insitu soil intermixed with parent rock
Kikon, A., and Jamir, I., 2021: Remote sensing based macro-scale (1:50,000) landslide susceptibility mapping in Toposheets 78M/9, M/10, M/11, M/13, M/14, M/15, 83A/2, A/3, A/4, A/7, A/8, A/11, A/12, 83B/1, B/5 & B/9 covering  parts of Tawang, West Kameng
Bedding is almost sub horizontal
Pinjori-Kimi Road Slide 5
Pinjori-Kimi Road
1. Removal of slide debris 2. Widening of road along with regrading of slope to a gentler angle 3. Removal of overburden material to reduce the static load 4. Proper diversion of drainages through chute drains

1. SFM: Slope material is composed of thick column of insitu soil intermixed with parent rockmass 2. Failure of overburden material 3. Major drainage dissection on the left flank of the slide. 4. Seepage of water and loss of cohesion during rainfall
