Chhattisgarh’s ambitious IT project finally takes off after two decades

After nearly two decades, the Chhattisgarh government’s ambitious information technology (IT) project is finally seeing the light of day.

The plan to create an IT hub in the state was first proposed around 21 years ago, in 2003. Around 450 acres were proposed for the project. The state government offered attractive incentives, created investment zones, and developed ready-to-occupy buildings for IT, special economic zones, an IT investment region, and an electronic manufacturing cluster in Naya Raipur, the upcoming capital city of Chhattisgarh.
