LANDSLIDE PRONE AREAS IN INDIA

As per Geological Survey of India (GSI), about 0.42 million
sq.km covering nearly 12.6% of land area of our country is prone to landslide hazards. The major landslide prone areas in India include

1. Western Ghats and Konkan Hills (Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra)
2. Eastern Ghats (Araku region in Andhra Pradesh)
3. North-East Himalayas (Darjeeling and Sikkim)
4. North-West Himalayas (Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir).

Himalayan Mountain ranges and hilly tracts of the North-Eastern region are highly susceptible to slope instability due to the immature and rugged topography, fragile rock conditions, high seismicity resulting from proximity to
the plate margins and high rainfall.
