The CMRS’ team will include both day’s observations in their final report which is expected to be submitted to the Jaipur Metro Rail Corporation (JMRC) by the end of this week.
That report will include train operation suggestions, any necessary infrastructure corrections & completions prior to starting commercial operations, and whether an approval or conditional-approval has been granted or not.
