Chhattisgarh Lays Foundation for India’s First AI-Driven Data Centre Park

 

 

 

In a landmark move for India's digital infrastructure, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai has laid the foundation for the country’s first AI-based data centre park. The project, unveiled on May 3, positions Chhattisgarh at the forefront of the India AI initiative, signaling a bold step toward integrating AI technology into the core of data operations.

The Chhattisgarh AI data centre park will harness cutting-edge technologies, including GPU-based high-end computing, real-time data streaming, AI processing, and advanced analytics. With an initial capacity of 80 megawatts (MW) and plans to scale up to 150 MW, the park is backed by a substantial investment of ₹2,000 crore. This development not only enhances the state’s tech capabilities but also marks a shift in how AI in data centres in India is viewed—from a future possibility to a current reality.

As the India first AI-driven data centre of its kind, the park is expected to power a range of digital services across sectors like healthcare, agriculture, education, fintech, and governance. Designed as a smart data centre park, it will enable faster, more intelligent data processing and support India’s vision for a self-reliant digital economy.

 

This initiative underscores the state government’s commitment to creating a robust AI ecosystem in central India. It aligns with national digital transformation goals under Digital India and the growing demand for localized, secure, and intelligent data infrastructure.

With its strategic focus and large-scale investment, the AI technology Chhattisgarh project is poised to become a model for other states to follow, driving innovation, employment, and smart governance. As India accelerates its digital ambitions, Chhattisgarh is now firmly positioned as a pioneer in AI-powered data infrastructure.
