The Sinkhole is a depression built on the ground. This depression is formed when the layers of the Earth's surface collapse after being transformed into caves. Both natural and human activities are involved in their construction. Sinkholes can also be created due to human activities. Such as Broken Land Drains, due to leaks in water mains and sewerage pipes, excessive rainfall, storm events, turning of underlying limestone and water flow, etc. This condition can occur suddenly and without any prior warning. Because the land under the surface of the earth remains intact until its size becomes large. Let's know more about Geographical Incidence Sinkhole.
