Some kiosks were seen resting precariously on loose soil and laterite stones which presented imminent danger of a landslide. Incidentally the spot had experienced landslides in the past. The authorities concerned have taken heed of the report and built a retaining wall along the road (as seen in the photograph) which will prevent landslides in the future, specially, during the monsoon.

In the ‘Citizen Herald’ column of Herald dated July 11, 2016, I had highlighted the fact that a spot in Vasco near the El-Monte theatre was susceptible to a landslide in the article “Vasco Road Susceptible to Land Slide”.
