    SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING & TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING REPORT ON INDUSTRIAL VISIT TO JAIPUR METRO RAIL CORPORATION LTD. (JMRC), JAIPUR On 13th October 2017, an industrial visit was organized by the Department of Civil Engineering for the students of III year. The students along with 3 faculties, Mr. Vaibhav Jain, Mr. Pankaj Saini, and Mr. Jitendra Kumar went on an industrial visit to Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation Ltd., Mansarover. Jaipur metro is a rapid system which is used for transportation by the people. Jaipur metro has been divided into two further routes usually known as pink line and orange line. The pink line is Phase-I A which starts from Mansarover to Chandpole Bazaar. It has a length of 9.63 KM and has 7 intermediate stations with a starting and a terminal station. The construction of Phase-I B between Chandpole and Badi Chaupar is under process and is awaited to be completed which is an underground line. Jaipur metro stations are the first stations in India which are wholly dependent on solar energy. The electricity used by the metro is 25000 KV. The power in Jaipur is supplied by two different junction points. The junction is in between civil lines and Chandpole so there is an electric cut for 10 seconds in which the train runs on its own momentum. Fig. 1 Workshop 1 The depot is a place where trains get fit for their next day journey. Mansarover depot is a 27.6 acre site which has 11 metro trains under it. The trains run on a Standard gauge which is 1435mm.
