The location is not really clear, but NH53 is the road that links Badarpur in Assam with Imphal in Manipur, India, so I would speculate that it is on that road. Standing so close to those tension cracks as the main mass collapsed was somewhat foolhardy. It is a luck that there was no retrogression of the landslide mass.
