UPMRC has been taking Kanpur Metro's construction work further with a kind of focus and a dedication that is laudable. The metro corporation has set out with the goal to break Lucknow Metro's record, establishing Kanpur Metro as the fastest developed metro route. The Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) has been making tremendous efforts in the same direction. To achieve the same, Kanpur Metro was successful in putting the first pillar cap on its IIT-Motijheel route about a week ago.
<p>UPMRC on Monday, 2nd March, was successful in placing the first pillar cap of its maiden route, three months ahead of its set schedule!</p><h2>What's the update?</h2><div class="rm-embed embed-media"><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="789" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FOfficialUPMetro%2Fposts%2F213473203361443&width=500" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" width="500"></iframe></div><p>The metro corporation has ensured that the construction of Kanpur metro's first route ensues at a fast pace. Construction on the metro route had started last year in December and within the time, Kanpur Metro has successfully constructed a Depot station, several pillar and now finally, the route's first pillar cap. </p><p>After putting Kanpur Metro's first pillar cap, the corporation aims to fasttrack the work on the metro route and get it ready ahead of time. The pillar caps are pivotal for the metro route as U girders will be later put on these caps. UPMRC MD, Kumar Keshav was present at the location on Monday, "UPMRC will complete the development of Kanpur Metro route within the expected time limit and we are trying to ensure that Kanpur is gifted with an international level metro route," he said.</p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1928181993792414" data-ad-slot="7448307427" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>

The metro work has been progressing at a rapid pace especially after the allocation of over ₹350 crores in funds from the state budget.</p><h2>Knock Knock</h2><p>UPMRC's prompt construction and speedy work is highly appreciable and we hope that Kanpur can soon have its very own metro route. The metro will not only solve connectivity issues but save commuters from heavy traffic and the pothole riddled streets.</p>

Wash your hands

We touch a slew of things on a daily basis, from the elevator call button to the handrail of a public staircase, most places have germs. Washing of hands after touching any public property can be helpful to avoid infection. So wash your hands with soap frequently, as frequently as possible, for at least 20 seconds after touching anything and any-one.</p>Avoid physical contact
<img lazy-loadable="true" src="https://assets.rebelmouse.io/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpbWFnZSI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXNzZXRzLnJibC5tcy8yMjg0MTU1MS9vcmlnaW4uanBnIiwiZXhwaXJlc19hdCI6MTYzOTUyMzc4MH0.c6yGTj5W8vAdoNRSc5lus6YbiTjFTRyhHjJ6U2uJjDE/img.jpg?width=980" id="4eb61" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="182b6ef70b059e64250801eb946249dc" data-rm-shortcode-name="rebelmouse-image" /> <p>Coronavirus is an airborne disease, which means it can be contracted by simply breathing in the proximity of an infected person. So avoiding physical contact is the best route to take. Also, if someone is showing flu like symptoms, make sure to keep a distance of 2 metres from them. What we mean is, opt for a <em>namaste</em> instead of a handshake.</p>No touching the face
<img lazy-loadable="true" src="https://assets.rebelmouse.io/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpbWFnZSI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXNzZXRzLnJibC5tcy8yMjg0MTYyMy9vcmlnaW4uanBnIiwiZXhwaXJlc19hdCI6MTYwMjYwMjcxMn0.yTim_WPch6yT136c6wZyI1EBHJRpGkb-hbqbGXljP1I/img.jpg?width=980" id="6cfac" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="429b0a466ddf802de396ffc7589588ad" data-rm-shortcode-name="rebelmouse-image" /><p>Since the spread of germs cannot be contained a hundred percent, hands are never absolutely clean. So wash your hands before touching your face, especially you nose eyes and mouth. Since germs can be killed/washed off via soap, you can touch your face after. </p>Mask-Up!
<img lazy-loadable="true" src="https://assets.rebelmouse.io/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpbWFnZSI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXNzZXRzLnJibC5tcy8yMjg0MTU1Ni9vcmlnaW4uanBnIiwiZXhwaXJlc19hdCI6MTYxOTEyMzAxOX0.aplAcyRPc2ic6fU9wHGdLoebVtK_08hLxR-z50KcFw0/img.jpg?width=980" id="c5795" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="551e633a342ddd33ba5470a40b5d441b" data-rm-shortcode-name="rebelmouse-image" /> <p>Masks are the best kind of protection against most air-borne diseases. Which is why you should make it a priority to get masks and use them while in public, especially in super markets, public transports and crowded areas. Masking will also ensure that if you're the one with an infection, other people are spared.</p>Beware of the symptoms
<img lazy-loadable="true" src="https://assets.rebelmouse.io/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpbWFnZSI6Imh0dHBzOi8vYXNzZXRzLnJibC5tcy8yMjg0MTU1Ny9vcmlnaW4uanBnIiwiZXhwaXJlc19hdCI6MTYzNjkzNzUwOH0._RBX8yq0JWYl0yUvMoHD3Orgft9okduTbo2fHfTdtxY/img.jpg?width=980" id="0caf1" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="efa4a3c1342bc2e1c5f37fe6d5b9e686" data-rm-shortcode-name="rebelmouse-image" /> <p>Coronavirus appears with flu like symptoms. Fever, soar throat, headache or cold and cough can be tell-tale signs of the disease. While these are also the signs of common cold and flu, taking necessary precaution is strongly advised. Consult your doctor in case you have the said symptoms.</p>

An ingenious school bag cum table landed this IIT-Kanpur student in Forbes 30 under 30!
February 10, 2020
When we think of government aided or rural education institutes, infrastructure hardly ever comes to our mind. The furniture, furnishings or the lack thereof is one of the major drawbacks of rural schools.
In order to provide for a better and more rounded education for rural kids, a PhD student from IIT Kanpur- Eshan Sadasiva made an ingenious invention which landed him in Forbes India's 30 under 30 list of 2020!
<h2>What's the update?</h2><div class="rm-embed embed-media"><iframe allow="encrypted-media" allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" height="485" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FIITKanpur.DoRA%2Fphotos%2Fa.1642527576031475%2F2529340627350161%2F%3Ftype%3D3&width=500" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" width="500"></iframe></div><p>Eshan Sadashiv an IIT-K Alumni and a shining star for rural kids in the country has secured a place in the prestigious Forbes list of 30 under 30.

From science fiction to reality, IIT-Kanpur's 'fly on the wall' robot is the stuff of future
February 07, 2020

This robotic bug which is inspired by several idioms and sci-fi examples is called 'Insect-Copter', a small bug-like robot that weighs merely 22 grams. </p><p>According to a recent report by TOI, this miniature robot will be used for the 'fly-on-the-wall' surveillance by the Indian defence forces. The completely indigenous tech will be handed over to Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), which will conduct field-trials and would spawn the bug for uses by the Indian armed forces. </p><p>A professor at IIT Kanpur, Laxmidhar Behera informed the world about this robot stating clearly that the AI bug can fly and spy undetected. He also stated that the bug can cover all sorts of landscapes and endure most weather conditions. The bug can also access high-security buildings and even find its way out of there without human help.</p><p><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1928181993792414" data-ad-slot="7448307427" data-ad-format="auto" data-full-width-responsive="true"></ins>

The miniature robot can help the defence forces get their hands on intel which would once have been extremely difficult to procure. Hence this sci-fi turned reality invention is one that we just cannot wait to see in real life!</p>
