Active fault trace on the right bank of Kaswali River, East of Lodai village. The fault has displaced fan surface resulting into north facing fault scarp. Veiw looking south.

Active fault displacing and warping the alluvial fan surface of Jawaharnagar. View looking south

E-W trending active fault trace (?) cutting through the colluvial debris in the peidmont zone along the Katrol hill range north of Hamadra talai.

Eastern extension of active fault trace aligned along the range front at Satpura Dungar cutting colluvial debris near Ler village.

Expression flat rocky surface with thin colluvial material cover showing sharp straight contact with the alluvial, view looking to the south. The location between Ler and Ratnal.

Liquefaction associated with lateral spreading resulting in the formation of depression of 1-1.5m in diameter. Location at Budharmora

Lateral spreading resulted in the development of sub parallel extensional cracks or normal faults with downthrow due to north.
